When her aunt died, level-headed accountant Clare Cermak inherited a fortuneβas well as a phantom dog and the power to help ghosts move on. Her new gift led her to Zach Slade, a sexy private investigator with a unique psychic gift of his own, and the man whoβs slowly opening her heart. But as they work toward building a future together, a sinister threat emerges.
An evil ghost is ravaging Creede, Colorado, threatening to devour the spirit of an innocent boy. Inexperienced in facing such a powerful ghostβand knowing her spirit, too, could be ripped awayβClare still can't refuse to help. With Zachβs support she uncovers the ghostβs identity, and the ancestral weapon required to slay it. But does Clare dare to use that weapon before the ghost destroys the man she lovesβand her own spirit?
