The Jeff Resnick Mysteries: Ghostly Encounters
This collection of stories from the Jeff Resnick Mystery Series focuses on Jeff's encounters with the spirit world. Each story was previously published individually, but they are now brought together in this stand-alone edition.
They are:
When The Spirit Moves You: Jeff Resnick's curiosity is piqued when he sees a sign advertising psychic readings. At first he's sure the medium is a fake, but then his funny feelings lead him to suspect that a murder has taken place in the dilapidated house where Madam Zahara holds her readings. Just who died and how? And why is Jeff compelled to look for bodies buried in the medium's yard?
Spooked: The trick-or-treaters have gone home and now it's time for the adults to celebrate All Hallows Eve. When Maggie suggests they consult an Ouija board, Jeff Resnick thinks it'll be anything but fun. And when they conjure up a ghost from Jeff's past, the game turns dangerous for the most vulnerable person in his life. (This short story directly follows Dark Waters.)

But it's soon apparent that his so-called random accident is anything but, and the murder of a close friend has a hobbled Jeff on the run. Can he discover who's out to destroy his life?and threaten those he loves most?

Grief is love's shadow.
The presence of absence.
An unbearable weight of emptiness.
