In Sight Unseen, Tess Avery is a top homicide detective who is forced to quit her job after being diagnosed as clinically blind. Tess uses an assistance app and connects with Sunny Patel, a professional seeing-eye guide living 3,000 miles away. Using a hidden camera and earpiece, Sunny remotely steers Tess and becomes her “secret weapon” to solve crimes. Inspired by one of the co-creators’ experiences with sight loss,Tess and Sunny bring a fresh perspective to solving crime.
