A free house and a dead ex-husband? That's like winning the Powerball Carly Taylor swore she'd never go back to Potter Grove. That cesspool of a small town always seemed to be teeming with gossip, and most of it was about her and her lying, drunken, rich husband who hung out at strip clubs and cheated on her. But that was four years ago. And now, that jerk is dead. It's the reason Carly's finally heading back. Her ex-husband left her his house when he died, and Carly figures you'd have to be some sort of stupid to pass up a free house. It's like winning the Lotto, especially when it involves a dead ex too. But the town seems different to her now, like something is off. And it's not just the fact there's a murderer on the loose and women are missing.As soon as Carly signs the paperwork on the spooky Victorian, she finds out her Lotto win has a catch. And it's an annoying, snotty one. Her dead ex-husband is haunting her free house. He wants her to solve his murder, which Carly is in no hurry to do, until the missing women are tied to her ex's death so figuring out his case takes on a new level of urgency. But just like a free house, nothing is ever as safe as it seems, especially when you're forced to solve crimes with your dead ex-husband.
