Death Comes Calling

Mary Harrow's mother burned for seeing the dead.

For three years, Mary has survived in Depression-era Manhattan by refusing the same gift—ignoring the voices on dead lines, staying invisible, pretending she's ordinary.

Until poverty forces her into a spiritualist parlor, where desperate clients pay to contact the dead.

She means to fake it.

The ghosts have other plans.

Every séance tears the veil. Every spirit takes a piece of her. And watching from the shadows is something ancient—something that knew Florence Harrow, that's been waiting thirteen years for her daughter, that offers only one path to survival:

Accept what you are. Or die like your mother did.

The dead don't forget. And they always collect.
