Mystery
Mira, a receptionist at a small dental clinic, never meant to kill anyone...least of all her ex-situationship, Rayan. All she did was slip a "harmless" internet potion into his food as petty revenge for ghosting her. But when he drops dead and his actual ghost shows up -sarcastic, intrusive, and annoyingly self-aware -Mira's life turns into a tragicomedy of guilt, panic, and bad timing. Now she has two problems: 1. The body. (Buried behind her twenty-floor apartment complex.) 2. The ghost. (Who refuses to leave until she "fixes things.") As she juggles front-desk smiles, nosy neighbors, and police inquiries, Mira's paranoia sharpens into dread. Because Rayan's disappearance isn't the only one - and what began as a supernatural mess slowly unravels into something colder, darker, and disturbingly human. Haunted by a ghost and hunted by a city's corruption, Mira finds herself standing between the living and the dead, where every truth costs something, and redemption may not mean survival. A darkly comic psychological thriller about guilt, ghosts, and the quiet horror of doing the right thing too late.

When the spirit of a comatose man shows up in front of her, Alexis Howard is determined to help him find his identity. Little does she know, she's about to get sucked into a world of secrets, lies, and murder. *** Alexis Howard can see the dead. A gift that has done her more harm than good. Having been forced to move into a strange small town because of it, Alexis vows to cut all contact with the world of the dead. It's easy at first, especially since there don't seem to be any ghosts in Casa Nova. That is until a comatose patient of hers shows up as one. No, he's not dead. He's just semi-dead. And he has no idea who he is. Oh, and the police think he's a cold-blooded criminal who's involved in the disappearance of a 17-year-old girl. Believing otherwise, Alexis decides to help the spirit find his identity and becomes embroiled in the search for the missing girl. Her investigation also leads to a meeting with a peculiar cat, who seems to be much older than she looks. Just what exactly is the connection between the three? What kind of a cat gets shot and shows up without so much as a scratch a few days later? More importantly, who is John Doe?
