Premonitions - we've all had them - that inner voice telling us something our minds could not know by natural means. Some call it intuition, others a supernatural knowledge. Based on a premonition, Debbie Wilson reopened her sister's 20-year old cold murder case and found the real killer. Four years after closing the case, another premonition came upon Debbie even stronger than the previous one. This one led her to believe that she would die within a year. With her cancer diagnosis and a family history of death to the disease, it seemed like her voice of doom was preparing Debbie for her inevitable end of life. But did this voice seek truth and justice like the previous one had or hopelessness? Whose voice did Debbie hear and was it really true? Even in the Valley is Debbie's journey into a warfare of two conflicting desires - death from the voice in her mind and healing from her spirit. Which would win?
