Die on Your Feet
By S.G. Wong
Crescent City, 1934
In Crescent City, the dead are always close.
At the point of death, people can choose to become Ghosts, tethered to the living. They can remain with their loved ones as invisible companionsβor in the case of Crescent Cityβs ghostly mayor, remain in office forever.
Being a P.I. in Crescent City isnβt easy or glamorous. Luckily Lola Starke has an edge: her Ghost, Aubrey, who can gather valuable clues from other Ghosts in the Ether. When they accept a simple missing-persons case, theyβre drawn into a complicated web of lies and double-crosses that involves the most powerful people in the Cityβincluding Lolaβs own mother, Grace McCall, a famous film star and the mayorβs former lover.
As Lola races to untangle the deceit ensnaring her, she discovers an old enemy at its center carefully orchestrating the perfect moment to betray Lola and destroy Aubrey forever...unless Lola and Aubrey can stop them first.
