Temple's Ghost

Mothers die with impeccably bad timing.

 

Sons and daughters plant them in the ground and go on with their lives.

 

But not so with Colton's mother. She wouldn't have it that way.

 

It couldn't have come at a worse time for Colton — his mother dying. Book sales were slipping and he was up against a hard deadline and publishing houses don't have mothers. His wife wanted a divorce and she usually got what she wanted. Still, a man's mother only dies once.

 

Katrina lost a mother too. Katrina was Colton's sister and some claimed New Orleans had named a hurricane after her, but it wasn't true. She had never been to New Orleans, and everybody knows cities don't get to name hurricanes. More than a few men had named their cars after her though. And a few boats.

 

Family and friends gathered and the funeral went off without a hitch. Then Bo came to town.

 

If you like suspense and mystery and endings that don't fit the mold you'll love Temple's Ghost.
