In a tragic incident that led to the dead of parents and the loss of her eyes as a child, a blind female psychologist who is very good in using her other senses is hired by the FBI to solve crimes.
I agree with the previous comments. You got a good character. In case you are going for a feature film (vs a TV show), use the formula's structure to mention specific inciting incident and action.

“When the FBI hires her as a consultant, a blind psychologist with a heightened intuition must unravel the conspiracy behind a brutal murder case.”
Heightened other senses would be useful to an action hero like Daredevil. If she is more into getting into the mind of murderers, an intuition would be more useful.

Yep, so why set it? the 50’s?? (I’m thinking of production costs: props and costumes for the 50’s will be harder/more expensive to replicate.)
If the setting is in the US, with the exception of San Francisco, virulent homophobia was pervasive in law enforcement into the 90’s. ? I used to work for the LAPD.? Heard many stories from old timers about the “good old days” (70’s and 80’s)? when they regularly raided gay bars, could come down hard with impunity on bun boys and drag queens .
>>McCarthy….
And McCarthy’s chief legal counsel, Roy Cohen, was gay; he eventually died of AIDS. (As dramatized in “Angels in America”.)? Talk about irony… (Cohen was also an influential mentor of Trump.? The one who told him to never admit to a mistake, never apologize, always counter punch.)

>>>I guess I see it more that these waking dreams, Recals, are a side effect of not sleeping as apposed to the drug.
And that has happened in experiments where volunteers are deprived of sleep for days.? They start hallucinating; eventually their minds will automatically flip into R.E.M. mode.? Because? R.E.M. sleep is how the brain edits the contents of short term memory, organizes and files what’s left into long term memory.
As I said earlier, I think the premise has interesting possibilities.? I suggest an alternate option might be to develop it as a film franchise.? Like the first film could be the origin story that sets up the premise and the story world, solves a dramatic question but leaves it open ended for further cases, further episodes. (Open ended in that the overarching problem of a 24/7/365 economic system that makes taking the drug a matter of Darwinian survival hasn’t been solved.)
Whatever. Best wishes with your writing.
