Believe Me

Alexandra Davenport saw a ghost when she was a child but no one believed her. They said it was understandable - her parents had died in a car accident - she'd recently attended her uncle's funeral - Marshlands house on the outskirts of Leahampton was a house that encouraged the mind to see apparitions. She was living and working in the village of Saltbank when she took a phone call from her cousin Harry - he was worried about his mother - her aunt Jess - she'd started to insist that she was seeing her dead husband. Chief Inspector Carl Hoyland remembers the case partly because of his his fascination with a teenage girl who told him she'd once seen a ghost and partly because of Marshlands house. It was an open an shut case; the body of Dominic Grant had been identified by his wife Jessica Grant. Why, after all this time was someone using Grant's credit card to book a room? The lives of the inhabitants of Marshlands house both in the past and in the present intertwine to provide the answers.
