There is humor and suspense and some craziness, plus a lot of heart and a great mystery. You all know I love pretty much everything Winters’ writes and this book is very much in keeping with her style. Ghost of Lies is the first book in Alice Winters’ new Medium Trouble series and I just loved it. But Hiro and Maddox make a good team and, working together, they may just stop the killer before it’s too late. Between her, the killer, and a host of seemingly friendly ghosts who nevertheless won’t leave Hiro alone, finding out who is behind it all is not easy.
And his worries are not unfounded, as a vengeful ghost seems to have set her sights on Hiro and wants him dead. Hiro is not willing to sit aside, much to Maddox’s dismay, as he can’t help but worry about Hiro ending up in danger. However, it soon becomes clear that there are multiple cases tied together and a serial killer on the loose. And when there is another murder that seems like it could be tied to Sean’s, Maddox is tasked with bringing Hiro along as a consultant.Īs the men dig into the latest murder, Maddox begins to soften that grumpy exterior and he and Hiro start to grow closer. Yet it is hard to deny the proof right in front of him. When Hiro confesses the truth about being able to interact with ghosts, Maddox can’t help but think he is crazy. Maddox doesn’t understand how Hiro keeps ending up at crime scenes, not realizing Hiro is being drawn in by ghosts to help sort things out.
Hiro is determined to find out who is behind Sean’s murder, much to the dismay of grumpy Detective Maddox Booker, who wants nothing to do with Hiro. The two were incredibly close, and Hiro misses having Sean alive, but being able to see and talk to him definitely helps. But one bright side is that it keeps Hiro in contact with his brother, Sean, who was killed not long ago.
It isn’t always easy, especially as Hiro finds himself in the middle of trouble because of it more often than not. Hiro has always been able to see ghosts in fact, his best friend is a ghost who has been hanging around for years.
