Rhys doesn't believe in ghosts. He inherits a building in the city of Schadesborough and selects a couple of tenants to live there with him. One of them sets up a pharmacy downstairs, the other paints in the attic. Turns out the old tenant never left.

What? Who? Why?

While the mystery unfurls, the trio are forced to face their fears and deal with their past issues resurfacing.

Did I say a trio? Let's throw a fourth one in, stir the pot, add a measure of pesky, complicated feelings, close the lid and let it simmer through a gruesome detour to the farthest reaches of rugged Arctic wilderness.

And yes, Vincent will also be in this awkward middle book of the Catnap Ramblers trilogy.

As well as the cat.

Let's not forget the cat.
