Close Your Eyes by Iris Johansen and Roy Johansen

Close Your Eyes - Blind at birth, Kendra Michaels received the gift of sight at twenty through surgery. Now at 20, she is a music therapist for the autistic.  Because of her blindness and her high intelligence, Kendra has been able to hone her other senses to become a very observant person, so much so that some accused her of being a witch when she was a girl. After she got her sight, because she wanted to experience everything, she observed everything, much more than other people.  (She brings to mind Shawn Spencer from the TV show "Psych," except she uses all her senses much more intently.)  Recently, she had been helping the FBI with a few of their cases.  However, she has sworn off the FBI and her agent boyfriend, Jeff Stedler, because she internalizes the cases too much. Now, Adam Lynch, ex-FBI, has come to ask her to help him.  Jeff was working on a case and now he has disappeared.  After a lot of soul searching, Kendra agrees to help him because she still cares for Jeff.
