Splat. That’s the sound Hali Waverly made when she hit the pavement after a drunken billionaire ran her over with his golf cart. Cha-ching.

By the early 1930s, PI Marshall Drummond had built up an underground reputation in North Carolina as the man to turn to with cases involving the weird and unexplained. So, it should have come as no shock when a notorious gangster wanted to hire him. Even a Northern gangster. But nothing is ever simple with criminals. What seems like a straightforward haunting reveals a callous crime, one that involves cold murder, shallow graves, and macabre ghosts. One that Drummond finds more and more difficult to get away from.

As a private investigator, most of Marshall Drummond’s cases involve that other world - the one with ghosts and spells, the one with witches and curses, the one most people never see nor want to see. When his Drummond’s old patrol buddy, Cooper, asks him to handle a current matter in private, he welcomes the idea of a case that does not involve the need for trips to the cemetery or discoveries about how deep the underworld goes. He should have known better.
