  San Francisco contractor Mel Turner is leading a volunteer home renovation project, and while she expects lots of questions from her inexperienced crew, she can't help asking a few of her own—especially about the haunted house next door . . . the place local kids call the Murder House. 
   But when volunteers discover a body while cleaning out a shed, questions pile up faster than discarded lumber. Mel notices signs of ghostly activity next door and she wonders: Are the Murder House ghosts reaching out to her for help, or has the house claimed another victim? 
   Now, surprised to find herself as the SFPD's unofficial "ghost consultant," Mel must investigate murders both past and present before a spooky killer finishes another job.

  If things aren’t challenging enough, Jerry’s intuition has him questioning his own personal safety as he and Gunter are now on Mario Fabel’s stomping grounds. 
  While Fabel has not threatened him, it doesn’t take special powers to know there is more to the man than meets the eye. 
  Will Jerry and his ghostly K-9 partner be able to slip in and out of the area undetected, or will the man with a reach deeper than his pockets find them and make Jerry an offer he cannot refuse?

When a young girl disappears one night from the park, then turns up again the next morning in a different place on the island, people start to talk about her. Was she drunk and just unable to remember what happened? Did she go home with a guy and won't admit it? What happened to her, and why is she insisting that she doesn't know? Emma Frost is fighting for Victor's best friend, Skye. Emma is trying to get her back from the people who took her in the night, but having no luck, when a guy falls into her arms in the street and dies a few minutes later. The autopsy shows he has frozen to death, but it doesn't seem possible. When a young boy from Victor's school turns up frozen, as well, and things start to get cold around her own house, Emma begins to fear for her loved ones' lives. Once again, Willow Rose has written a story so compelling that it leaves the listener in almost unbearable suspense until the surprise ending is revealed.
