Description

Harry Doyle was murdered as a 10-year-old child and brought back to life by two Tampa cops. 20 years later he has dedicated his life to putting killers behind bars as a homicide detective who has the unwanted ability to hear the post-mortem whispers of murder victims. Dubbed 'The Dead Detective' by his fellow cops, Doyle now faces his most difficult case: a beautiful murder victim who was a notorious child molester. It is a case that will shake Harry to his very core.

Reviews

We have a feeling that Heffernan is setting us up for more dead detective novels, which we welcome like the zealots we are.
