The entire story is told from Rain’s first person point of view, which can be hard to pull off but he is such a wry narrator, with a skewed but affectionate way of seeing people and situations, that I just had to keep reading. Not only is the mystery compelling - was Amy Greene murdered? if so, by whom and why? - but the characters are wonderfully complex. This is the first novel that I have read by Harmon, and it will definitely not be the last. So when he is caught trying to deliver a message from beyond the grave, his boss gives him one last chance and sends him down to backwater Florida to work a five year-old cold case … except this particular backwater is his old hometown, and his ex-boyfriend Danny McKenna is part of the police unit he will be assisting. They would put him on psychological leave until he got his head screwed on straight. Who would believe him? Well, okay, his free-spirited hippie parents certainly would, but his fellow agents? His superiors? Nope.
Rain has been able to see them his entire life, but has never dared to tell anyone. With one tiiiiiny little problem: he can see ghosts. Rainstorm “Rain” Christiansen is an agent with the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit. One part white blood cells, one part plasma, one part nosy motherfucker.Price: $16.99 (paperback) / $6.99 (ebook) “No matter how much I bitched about my job, I loved to solve a fucking mystery. Don’t you fall in love, it warned me right back.” “Don’t you fall in lust, I warned my dick. You should look snazzy when you’re getting fired.” I’m excited to read more from Rain and Danny in book 2! The exciting and suspenseful murder mystery is the main plot here but there’s also a sweet second-chance romance with his new partner and ex-boyfriend Danny. I loved Rain and his wacky hippy family and I really loved the ghosts, especially the adorable and snarky Ethan! I freaking loved the writing and all the quick-witted, dry humor. Unfortunately, he hates it and no one believes him. Rain, a criminal profiler for the FBI, is a medium who can see and talk to ghosts.
4.5⭐️ This was such a fun read! It was funny, suspenseful and even creepy at times.
