Book Summary
I have what you might call a strange job: I can find dead people. I can sense the final location of a person who’s passed, and share their very last moment. The way I see it, I’m providing a service to the dead while bringing some closure to the living—but I’m used to most people treating me like a blood-sucking leech. I couldn’t do it alone—that’s why my stepbrother Tolliver travels with me, as my manager and, sometimes bodyguard. It’s an unpredictable work schedule we: we live out of hotels ready to hit the road at any time. Because for the living it’s not always urgent—even if the dead can wait forever……….
Harper and Tolliver are experts at getting in, getting paid, and then getting out of town fast--because the people who hire Harper have a funny habit of not really wanting to know what she has to tell them. Aft first the little Ozarks town of Sarne seems like no exception. A teenage girl has gone missing, and Harper knows almost immediately that the girl is dead. But the secrets of her death--and the secrets of the town--are deep enough that even Harper's special ability can't uncover them. With hostility welling up all around them , she and Tolliver would like nothing better than to be on their way. But then another woman is murdered. And the killer's not finished yet.................
"This is a great story. I couldn't stop reading it till' the very end. The mystery was great too.
