Kerry's Game — Elizabeth Maxim

Sometimes it takes centuries to right a wrong... Miner 49er Christopher Forsyth needs help finding a murderer; his own. Allies can be found in unlikely places... 21st Century parapsychologist Kerry Murphy is passionate about two things, living in San Francisco, and exposing frauds. Past and present collide... When the owners of an upscale San Francisco bed and breakfast call on the staff of the Pacific Institute for Paranormal Research to help them get rid of a troublesome ghost, Kerry fully expects to discover an elaborate hoax aimed at putting the elderly sisters out of business. When she suddenly finds herself swept back to the Barbary Coast, the lead investigator realizes the lengths to which this particular restless spirit will go in getting what he wants.
