Judicial Haunting
The dead keep no books. They remember everything.
For eleven years, the police of San Basilio have transformed killing into a statistic and official reports into a wall of silence. Detective Inspector Maren Solomon knows the language of the lie because she has read it 114 times: suspects opened fire, officers returned fire, and another inconvenient life disappeared into the ground.
Then decorated Sergeant John Thomas is discovered dead inside a locked bedroom, bearing the unmistakable mark of a hanging no living intruder could have carried out.
As other powerful men begin hearing forgotten names inside their walls, Maren discovers that the dead have returned. They are not seeking blind revenge. They have come to hold court.
Every officer, clerk, politician and witness must now confront the difference between following orders, remaining silent and deliberately choosing evil. While San Basilio's leaders struggle to protect the system that enriched them, Maren begins assembling the forbidden record of those it erased.
To survive the reckoning, the living must finally speak the truth the state buried.
Judicial Haunting is a gripping supernatural political thriller about police corruption, institutional silence, moral responsibility and a court of justice that death itself could not close.
