Fresh off her first high-profile case, Raissa James' paranormal detective agency, Pluto's Snitch, is attracting serious attention. Even Zelda Fitzgerald, the nation's most dazzling flapper, comes calling. Her friend Camilla has been committed to Bryce Hospital after a violent, unexplained outburst-and Zelda suspects something far stranger than madness is to blame.
With her partner Reginald Proctor in tow, Raissa heads to Montgomery, Alabama, where whispers of the occult and a string of other young women suffering eerily similar afflictions point to something dark and dangerous.
As the Snitches dig deeper, they uncover secrets tangled in the past-and realize that Camilla's salvation may lie not with doctors or reason, but with the restless dead.
