About This Book

When private detective Sam Blackman agrees to help his partner Nakayla Robertson run a fundraiser for orphaned twins, the event seems harmless: a nighttime ghost tour through Asheville, North Carolina. Instead, the staged haunting turns into real murder when an actress is found hanging from a bridge. A second killing tied to another local ghost tale pushes the case into serial-killer territory, and the evidence begins to point at Sam's friend, defense attorney Hewitt Donaldson. To clear him, Sam and Nakayla must separate present-day motive from old wounds and long-buried retribution.
