If You've Got It, Haunt It

Death is calling, and he’s not one to be ghosted…

'Perfect for the spooky season' Heidi Swain ★

Madame Viola Starbloom is an internet sensation. With a devoted online following, she offers palm readings, tarot-card deciphering and, of course, the ability to contact loved ones passed. She is also a fraud.

But on Halloween night, when a haunting online comment and strange apparition pull Thomas Croft, her first love, back into her life, the carefully constructed world she's painstakingly built unravels.

Tethered by a mysterious silver thread, the two have seven days to unearth the secret that binds them — or else be tied together always.

Can she lay the ghosts of her past to rest, or will she remain haunted forever?
