Description
When she was 15, Harper Connelly was struck by a bolt of lightning. She recovered, mostly... she has a strange red spiderweb on parts of her body, and her right leg is weak. Sometimes her right hand shakes. She has headaches. And she can find dead people.That was the part that interested anthropology professor Dr Clive Nunley, who invited Harper and her stepbrother Tolliver to Memphis to give a demonstration of her unique talent and what better place for it than an old cemetery? Dr Nunley doesn't bother to hide his scepticism, even when Harper senses a young girl, recently deceased, in a grave alongside its owner a centuries-deceised man.
When the grave is opened, Harper is proved right: the dead girl is Tabitha Morgenstern, an eleven-year-old abducted two years previously. That's bad enough, but worse is to come, for Harper tried and failed to find the child when she first went missing... so Harper and Tolliver embark on their own investigation to find the killer.
And the next morning a third dead body is found in the grave.
