Book excerpt: Everything's just going to pieces... I got me a real important job. Important because I need to make my boss, Mr. Howard, happy with me like yesterday. It's no secret that Mr. Howard has never liked me, but if he fires me? Well, I'm sure that will mean the end of Cain Morgan's ghost taking up residency inside my head. See, Cain shares my body all because he's supposed to be helping Taliyah settle into her job as the new Chief of Police. And though Taliyah's pretty well settled by now (by my way of thinking), no one's said anything about moving Cain on to the other side. And I like him right where he is. So that's why I've gotta make darn sure this next case I get put on is a slam dunk. I've been hired to bring Sophia Erepto's dead granny back because the Erepto family is missing something real important to them-an idol. And I ain't talkin' American Idol on the tele. I'm talking about a little, gold statue-the owner of which will take over as the head of the family clan. Real important stuff. So when that idol goes missing and Granny ain't talkin', Darla's got a real big problem on her hands...
