Scarborough House is haunted, and it's not doing much for Donovan Scarborough's investment portfolio. No one wants to buy a place with levitating crockery, or (the wrong kind of) rhythmic pounding throughout the night. Luckily, Melody "I-See-Dead-People" Bittersweet has just launched her own ghostbusting agency with best friend Marina, geeky, keen Arthur, and a one-eared pug called Lestat.

DI Andy Horton is enjoying a sailing trip to France when the call comes in: Sergeant Cantelli's nephew, Johnnie Oslow, has vanished right before the prestigious Cowes Week yacht races on the Isle of Wight. Horton's boss dismisses it - probably just a romantic escapade - until charred remains turn up in an abandoned tunnel. Could it be Johnnie? What begins as a missing person case quickly spirals into a deadly game of cat and mouse. A ruthless killer is on the loose - and he's far from finished.

DI Andy Horton – a Harley-riding maverick with a nose for trouble and a knack for uncovering the truth – is back in this twisty murder mystery! Supposedly on holiday, Horton can't resist the lure of flashing blue lights at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. There, he finds the body of naval historian Dr. Douglas Spalding.

With his superiors unwilling to act, he risks his career to dig deeper.

Horton's surveillance yields nothing… until dawn brings a new victim. A woman Horton recognises from Woodley's funeral.
