David Witt's White
David Witts is starting over. Having just conquered the crippling anxiety that forced him to avert his gaze for years, he's ready for a normal junior year in the coastal town he calls home. But "normal" vanishes when a trip to Raleigh ends with him passed out on a sidewalk, his hand gripped by an invisible force.
Now, David is haunted by Beverly Nance, the ghost of a young woman who perished in an apartment fire in 1976. She flickers into his life through mirrors and reflections, her form alternating between the beautiful woman she was and the horrifying, burnt specter of her death. She is desperate for his help, but her rage is unpredictable and tied to the people around him.
Teaming up with his fearless best friend, Sophia, and the insightful new girl, Philly, David digs into the cold case. Their investigation reveals a cover-up and a name: Rossi, the owner of the burnt flower shop. The shocking connection? Their kindly, broken-down school bus driver, Tony Rossi, is the owner's son.
As David pieces together the tragic story, he discovers that Beverly's sole surviving relative is someone he knows intimately-his own history teacher, Sarah Chancellor. Torn between Beverly's escalating demands for vengeance and his own compassion for the guilt-ridden Tony, David must walk a perilous line.
Guided by his mentor, Dr. Peters, and with unexpected aid from a classmate with uncanny intuition, David becomes the bridge between the living and the dead. He must help Beverly reconcile with her past, forgive the unforgivable, and finally find peace before her ghostly rage consumes the very people David cares about most.
DAVID WITTS: WHITE is a gripping supernatural mystery that explores the weight of guilt, the power of forgiveness, and the enduring bonds of family and friendship. It's the compelling first book in a series where solving a ghost's mystery means confronting the shadows in one's own heart.
