Book by Harris Charlaine

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Harper Connolly is honest, ethical and loyal - and ever since a bolt of lightning zapped her on the head, she's had an extra-special talent: she can find dead people. It's not a common-or-garden job. Some people find Harper's talent useful and fascinating, but she's getting used to most people treating her like a blood-sucking leech, preying on the recently bereaved and offering false hope. She's become an expert at getting in, getting paid and getting out, fast.
So when Harper and her stepbrother Tolliver are hired to help in the Ozarks, they're wary. Their mission is to find a local teenager - missing, believed dead - and instead they find that someone is willing go to extraordinary lengths ­­to bury a secret.
It doesn't take long before Tolliver is locked away on trumped-up charges and Harper's fighting for her life . . .

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Harper Connelly has what you might call a strange job: she finds dead people. She can sense the final location of a person who's passed, and share their very last moment. The way Harper sees it, she's providing a service to the dead while bringing some closure to the living - but she's used to most people treating her like a blood-sucking leech. Traveling with her step-brother Tolliver as manager and sometime-bodyguard, she's become an expert at getting in, getting paid, and getting out fast. Because for the living it's always urgent - even if the dead can wait forever.
