title: Ghost of a Promise
author: Johnson, Melissa
description: When journalist Ben Riley's taxi nears his house he thinks his wife must be throwing him a birthday party. But it's a strangely somber party with no one even saying hello. As soon as Beth walks right through him, he knows he's arrived in time for the after party of his own funeral.
   And if being dead wasn't bad enough, his death has left his wife at the mercy of her own family - - the same family who he is certain framed him for drug smuggling, infidelity and likely murdered him as well. Beth, fighting a lifelong battle of mental illness, doesn't stand a chance against the vultures. With the help of a grim reaper, can he find a way to help his wife from beyond the grave? Or will sensing his presence prove her insanity?
  Reeling from her loss, Beth Riley doesn't care if Ben's reappearance is a haunting or a figment of her imagination. She'll take it, no matter how long it lasts. But once they unravel the depths of deception and betrayal from those closest to them, what then?
