Why can't I turn down a woman in distress? I just took a case from the tearful, but very rich, widow Barker, whose husband supposedly died at the hands of a century-old phantom. He was the owner of Barker steel mill and it doesn't take me long to realise that something very weird is going on there. That's not all though, a spectral dog has eaten a bloke at a junkyard and I'm supposed to work out how to get him back. Everyone is lying to me about everything but my toughest test is dealing with the aftermath of my stupid decision to hire Amanda Harper. Not that she isn't talented, intelligent, and capable, because she is. She is also drop-dead gorgeous and massively distracting. She'll prove to be an asset no doubt, assuming we live through the week that is. The paranormal? It's all nonsense, but proving it might just get me killed.
Autorenporträt
At school, the author was mostly disinterested in every subject except creative writing, for which, at age ten, he won his first award. However, calling it his first award suggests that there have been more, which there have not. Accolades may come but, in the meantime, he is having a ball writing mystery stories and crime thrillers and claims to have more than a hundred books forming an unruly queue in his head as they clamour to get out. He lives in the south-east corner of England with a duo of lazy sausage dogs. Surrounded by rolling hills, brooding castles, and vineyards, he doubts he will ever leave, the beer is just too good.
