Old Ghosts
Sometimes the past can be deadly to the present.
When the ghost in Todd’s Beetle starts acting out of character, nearly getting him killed, his first instinct is anger. However, Frieda suspects the motive behind the ghost’s actions is protective rather than destructive, giving Todd’s vehicular near misses a new, sinister meaning. Someone—or something—is influencing drivers to deliberately endanger Todd. But who? and why?
While Todd faces spooky threats to life and limb, Mona faces a more earthly challenge. The ex-girlfriend who abandoned her suddenly reappears, dredging up old feelings and unbalancing her comfortable, stable life. Mona’s determined to deal with the problem on her own, but old patterns are hard to resist and her dubious decisions jeopardize her present relationships.
When ambushes both spectral and physical up the ante, some old ghosts must be dealt with before anyone else is hurt—or killed.

About the author
Maia Strong
19 books17 followersWriting, acting, bellydancing, and teaching people to talk in funny voices. Who knew you could make a living doing stuff like that? I didn't, and in fact I can't. Those are the things I do to feed my soul rather than my stomach.
I've always written, but I never expected to write romance. I have documented evidence of a seafaring play I wrote in the second grade. Something involving a giant duck, if memory serves; I'm too scared to dig it out of the binder and find out for sure. Since that rather inauspicious beginning, I've turned my hand to fantasy, science fiction, action adventure (with dinosaurs, oo!), and now steamy romance--with fantasy in it because that is my first genre love. It's inescapable when the first time you read The Lord of the Rings is in the fourth grade. (I read Asimov's Foundation trilogy the next year, but I didn't really understand it. I have yet to try reading it again lo these many years later.)
Off the page, I work in a number of positions with local theatres, I bellydance, and I train and perform aerial. I enjoy traveling, eating good food, drinking good coffee, and hanging out with my husband and our kitties.

The PUPI (Presence Unknown, Paranormal Investigation) books keep getting better. This is another gem, especially for long time Seattleites.
