The (after) Life of Stephen Fleet — Maria Aragon

A supernatural/paranormal novel from the author of The Jinniyah and The Hunter of the Dead, an epic about tragic and enduring love, loss, a terrible lie - and ghosts. Biographers Frida Burton and Andre Gessner are burrowing deep into their research on the life of a forgotten 19th century artist named Stephen Fleet, only to run into an ever-deepening mystery. Until he landed on the shores of France in 1866, there is no record of his existence, although he did exist. He was famous and successful in his time, but who was he? And why did he abandon his family in 1895? With the help of friends and allies, Frida and Andre begin to uncover the truths that Fleet's friends and Fleet himself tried to bury for the sake of propriety and for the sake of loved ones - much to the bemusement of Stephen Fleet and his friends as they tag along.
