Something Wicked

Spirit Club Mysteries - Book 1

Some people believe that ghosts exist, that they are unfinished business.
Some people might just be right.

Sophie Lawton tells her story simply: "I arrived to the broken. A child abandoned at birth but endowed with an ability to see auras--very helpful when trying to navigate through a world that sees you as flawed. Oh, and I see the dead."

Sophie not only sees and talks to them, she solves crimes with their help. She didn't plan on working with the dead. Still, when the aunt she had never met dies and leaves Volare Investigations to her, Sopie's world becomes entangled with the conspiracies of the dearly departed who are seeking redemption, reconciliation...and revenge.
Sophie's first task: "Find Melissa Starkey, a college co-ed who has disappeared."
Sophie is ill-equipped to be an investigator — that's what she says to anyone who will listen. "I'm a Librarian! And, I'm happy with that. I don't know anything about investigating crimes, and I don't know how to find lost girls!"
But the Powers behind Volare Investigations see it differently. With the help of a ghost secretary and her dead ex-husband, a disgraced police investigator, Sophie will be convinced to join forces with the unlikely trio to solve the girl's disappearance. It's a real race against time to save Melissa before a deranged serial killer makes the girl his next trophy victim.
Sophie has no delusions about her lack of skills to be an investigator. She seeks help from Jack O'Reilly, a local police detective. But O'Reilly is skeptical and reluctant. Sophie has more than just bureaucratic obstinacy to battle. She has become the target of an Evil Dark Spirit with murderous intentions on a mission to destroy her.
As time runs out for Melissa, Sophie battles against the odds to find the missing girl before it's too late.
