You may concentrate for up to one round per caster level; for each round of Concentration, you relive an additional round in the victim’s life, slowly rewinding from the moment of death. Every time you cast the spell, the vision begins again at the moment of death, so you cannot reach deeper into the past by casting the spell multiple times.

While you are reliving the life of the victim, you are completely unaware of your surroundings in the real world; during this time you are considered to be flatfooted. While you perceive the world through the eyes and ears of your target, you use your own ranks in Spot, Listen, and Search, and may notice details that your victim missed. This is a recorded experience; the mind of the victim is not involved in any way.

This spell cannot be used on a corpse that has been turned into an undead creature or targeted by the absorb revenant spell.
