Join Harper Connelly as she uncovers the secrets - and bodies - buried deep in this paranormal mystery series from bestselling author Charlaine Harris. Harper Connelly has what you might call a strange job: she finds dead people. She can sense the final location of a person who''s passed, and share their very last moment. Harper and her stepbrother Tolliver have become experts at getting paid and getting out of town fast - because people have a funny habit of not really wanting to know the truth. At first, the small Ozarks town of Sarne seems like no exception. The pair have been hired by local police to find a missing girl. But the secrets of her death - and the secrets of the town - are buried deep enough that even Harper''s special ability can''t uncover them. With hostility welling up, she and Tolliver want nothing more than to be on their way. But then another woman is murdered. And the killer''s not finished yet... ''Harris delivers a knuckle-gnawing tale ... [that] will challenge the most jaded mystery buffs'' Publishers Weekly
