Synopsis

The Double Traitor is an espionage novel set in the days leading to the first World War. The main character is Francis Norgate, an aspiring British diplomat who falls in disfavor with his superiors for defending a woman while stationed in Berlin. The resulting scandal causes Norgate to be recalled. On the way home, he meets a German gentleman, Selingman, who claims to be a crockery salesman. But, Selingman is not what he appears to be. Disillusioned by the English government, Norgate allows himself to be recruited by Selingman. Oppenheim tells a good story—a little romance, a little adventure—turn of the century tales of success and failure, gain and loss.

    Everly doesn't want to talk to restless spirits, and she definitely didn't sign up to help murdered ghosts resolve their unfinished business. All she does want is to forget about her rotten, cheating ex-husband and return to a quiet life in her quaint, cozy hometown. 
    But when she stumbles across her high school boyfriend's murdered body—and his ghost—Everly's fresh start begins to look more like paranormal purgatory. 
    Hudson Montayne is dead, pushy, and somehow even more annoying than he was at seventeen. And he refuses to rest until Everly pieces together the clues and finds his killer. 
    Only Hudson's murder is just the beginning. Small-town secrets rarely stay hidden, and the more Everly uncovers, the clearer it becomes—someone will stop at nothing to keep the truth hidden. 
    And in Mooselick River, everyone’s watching.
