I Get What They See

Your bartender takes one look at you and already knows what you’re going to order. She can also tell if you’re lying or hiding something. She’s Livvy Mercer – The Crime Solving Bartender who never forgets a face.

To Livvy, micro-expressions and body language speak louder than words. That makes her a great bartender, but it also gets her into a lot of trouble.

When her estranged mom guilts her into taking a part-time job at a retirement home where she works, Livvy thinks it will just be a way to get some badly needed cash.

Then, one of her coworkers goes missing and she learns the sweet old gentleman she befriended may be a serial killer.

When she and her roommate get stalked and threatened, they draw the attention of Garrett Lucas, a handsome FBI agent. Last time Livvy saw Garrett, he was the cop who didn’t believe her suspicions about a bar patron who later killed several women. That’s when she lost faith in cops and the justice system.

Will Livvy catch the killer or will she be their next victim?
