For some secrets, a house is not a home. It's a tomb. When a contractor is murdered within the decaying walls of Whitcomb Manor, CSI Ethan Drake believes it's an open-and-shut case. He trusts facts. He trusts evidence. He trusts the solid, predictable world he can analyze in his lab. He does not trust Julian Thorne, the town's reclusive psychic who feels the house's violent past as a wound that will not heal. Forced into an uneasy alliance, the skeptic and the seer must unravel a conspiracy that connects the fresh murder to a thirty-year-old cold case. But as they dig deeper, they discover that the lies holding the town together are as dangerous as the truth they seek. And the undeniable attraction pulling them closer could be the one thing that gets them killed. Whispers in the Walls: The Lies That Bind is the first book in the Spectral Evidence Mysteries, a new paranormal romantic suspense series where the only thing more dangerous than a killer is falling for the one person who can expose them.
