Elle Andrews Patt

When Archivist Andrea Kelley scores a sweet rental in Charleston, WV, she discovers it's already occupied. But the early rising, bacon-loving ghost of six-year-old Billie Mae makes for a tolerable roommate. Until two bodies turn up nearby and Billie Mae launches a full-fledged haunting offensive. Andrea digs in, using her considerable research skills and position at a powerful repository to investigate the strange circumstances surrounding Billie Mae's death-and her mother's confession of murder. But will Billie Mae's antics be enough to convert her biggest skeptic? Detective William Taka is pretty sure his BFF is losing her sanity and dragging him down with her, but he has his own troubles. He's shot a kid, left his current girl, pissed off his superiors, re-lit an old feud with a formidable ex-ally, and now someone's tracking his every move.Caught between an increasing phantom fury and the consequences of Taka's actions, Andrea confronts the local crime boss, questions the motives of law enforcement, fields phone calls from the dead, and skulks around in the dark, unsure of everyone who crosses her path. Can she unravel the mystery of Billie Mae's death and its connection to Taka in time to save him? Modern Southern Gothic meets Sleuthing Procedural in this atmospheric murder mystery.
