Description
PARTNER WANTED—GHOSTS NEED NOT APPLY.
Private Investigator JD Wolfe is haunted. By a ghost in a tattered nightgown who smells like lavender and arrives like trouble.
When a decorated Navy Master Chief turns up dead in his barn, everyone calls it suicide. JD calls it murder.
Nobody believes her. They rarely do.
The deeper JD digs, the closer danger creeps to the people she loves and the more her world begins to unravel.
JD keeps her promises—even to a little boy named Milo, who hires her for a dollar and a dime. Even when keeping them might cost her the only family she's ever known.
When a little boy goes missing, JD must do the one thing she’s spent years avoiding.
She must let the ghost in.
Haunted by a Broken Oath—the first JD Wolfe Investigation.
Where the ghosts are real, the innocent matter, and justice rarely comes without a price.
A Note From the Publisher
The novel blends investigative suspense with emotional depth, emphasizing justice, found family, courage, and healing. Violence occurs in the context of the criminal investigation, but graphic content is limited. There is no explicit sexual content.
Recommended for readers of Heather Graham, Simone St. James, Lisa Unger, Alice Blanchard, and others who enjoy character-driven mysteries with a subtle supernatural element.
Readers who enjoy mysteries where justice matters as much as the mystery itself will feel at home in JD Wolfe's world.
