Publisher's Synopsis
HE HAD TO SOLVE HIS OWN MURDER
William Brenton was a newlywed, happy and healthy and embarked on a new life with his wife, Alice.
But on Christmas Eve at his own party, Brenton feels ill. He goes upstairs, lies down on his bed . . .
And wakes up dead.
Floating above the scene he sees it all. His dear wife discovering his dead body the next morning, her horror and grief -- the household in uproar. . . .
And then a fellow named Ferris makes his acquaintance.
You're in a different world, a better world, so don't look back, the man tells him.
But then the police come.
William Brenton had died of a morphine overdose, and his wife is accused of the murder.
Brenton knows what he must do, even from the world beyond.
FIND OUT THE TRUTH!
With the help of a hard-boiled Chicago newsman and the ghost of a famous French detective, William Brenton searches for the truth that will set his wife free.
But can his soul deal with what he finds?
