The Listener

When Toby rescues a young woman of a terrible car accident, he starts having disturbing visions of the son of the woman, who has gone missing. The woman is traumatized and scared for being kidnapped to gun point. As the worry for the situation of the child increases, Toby realizes that it he is going to have to act fast to find a sense to the mental discords that are tormenting him.

Toby, still haunted by guilt over the murder of his friend Detective Charlie Marks and the disappearance of his mother – has resolved to stop fighting against his mysterious gift and use his telepathic abilities to help others. When he revives a woman who nearly drowned, her amnesia gives him the perfect opportunity. As he sets out to help her remember her past, she’s also being investigated by Sgt. Michelle McCluskey of the IIB, who has taken a special interest in Toby’s connection to the woman and uncovered his more than coincidental history with a number of major criminal cases in the past.

Despite his decision to stop using his telepathic abilities, Toby is forced to use them when he finds himself hostage in the middle of a bank heist. It will take all of Toby's skills, both as a paramedic and a mind reader, to keep him and his fellow hostages alive.

Toby and Michelle investigate a string of high-tech thefts in Vancouver. Toby’s personal life also heats up as his relationship grows with crime reporter Tia Tremblay, who is inexplicably the one person he can’t read. Meanwhile, new director of emergency services Oz Bey realizes that being the boss is harder than he expected.

Toby and Dev investigate a serial killer who leaves live snakes with his victims, echoing the calling card of a past culprit who Michelle had previously put behind bars. Meanwhile, Michelle is trying to enjoy her maternity leave with her new baby girl and husband Adam but when her credibility is doubted with the suggestion that she may have arrested the wrong suspect, she must return to the IIB in order to save her professional reputation.
