Sinopse

What happens when a special ability allows someone to use a sense in their work that most people cannot?
 
Gitta Kardos is a 40-year-old single businesswoman who lives for her work. As a perfumer, she designs personalised fragrances. But that's just the surface. Her work is much more complex, using her refined sense of smell to detect scents that no one else can. With the right concentration of scents, she can influence the behaviour of others without their awareness.
 
She can put one party at an advantage in business negotiations.
 
It can infer the current state of an athlete's body odour and thus determine his chances of winning for a bookmaker.
 
She can tell whether a negotiating partner is scared, aroused or sexually motivated.
 
And she can do all this by her smelling.
 
Gitta Kardos is brought together with a new client in Budapest, whose order she fulfils without a second thought, putting her and the business she founded with her partners in danger. Before she knows it, she is being hunted by the police as a suspect of multiple murders, and if that wasn't enough, she is being pursued by several assassins.
 
Can she prove his innocence in the murders? Can she outwit his pursuers? Will she find out who wanted her dead?
 
And how can she use his wonderfully sensitive sense of smell to do it?

    George Birch, undertaker for the New England town of Peck Valley, finds himself trapped in the vault where coffins are stored during winter for burial in the spring. When Birch stacks the coffins to reach a transom window, his feet break through the lid of the top coffin, injuring his ankles and forcing him to crawl out of the vault. Later, Dr. Davis investigates the vault, and finds that the top coffin was one of inferior workmanship, which Birch used as a repository for Asaph Sawyer, a vindictive citizen whom Birch had disliked, even though the coffin had originally been built for the much shorter Matthew Fenner. Davis finds that Birch had cut off Sawyer's feet in order to fit the body into the coffin, and the wounds in Birch's ankles are actually teeth marks.

    Dear Listeners, 
    Welcome to the thrilling world of "11th Sense - The Final Defence." From the very beginning, this story has been a journey of discovery and imagination—a journey I am excited to share with you. 
    In this age of rapid technological advancements, where humanity continuously pushes the boundaries of science and the known world, I found myself wondering: What if there were more to human potential than we could ever imagine? We often think of our five basic senses as the limits of our interaction with reality, but what if there were hidden abilities within us—senses we’ve never fully explored? And what if those senses were the key to saving the world? 
    That question sparked the idea for this novel. 11th Sense - The Final Defence is more than just a thriller; it’s a story of unlocking hidden potential and harnessing the full spectrum of human capabilities. It’s about a group of individuals, seemingly ordinary at first, who rise to extraordinary challenges. They discover that within them, and within all of us, lie abilities that can change not just our personal worlds but the future of humanity itself. 
    Happy Listening
