Restless Dead

His latest case has him chasing ghosts. But the murderer is flesh-and-blood hiding in the ashes...

DCI Harry Grimm is on the cusp of a stunning decision. Considering making his move to the scenic Yorkshire Dales permanent, he ends up reviewing details of a terrible car accident that killed a retired colonel's beloved wife. But when the panicked widower calls the police claiming the deceased woman's spirit is haunting him, the dedicated detective wades in to piece together a less implausible explanation.

With suspicions running high after a cabin on the property burns down, Grimm and his team are shocked to identify the scorched human remains that leave behind a twice-grieving family. And when he uncovers evidence the fire wasn't simple misfortune, the no-nonsense investigator is certain the culprit is more than a ghastly ghoul...

Can he nab the phantom killer before they vanish into thin air?
