Ghosthunter: The Spectres of Saint Louis

by Edward J. Knight

How do you shoot a spectre?

Ghost sightings in the Saint Louis ruins. Trolls amassing across the Mississippi. A traitor hidden in the army garrison.

Beth’s proved she’s the best gunslinger in Golden City. Wild Bill Hickok trained her well. Now he wants her help. If anyone can figure out how to kill something that’s already dead, it’s her.

Time to strap on her Colt and ride.

If you like fantastic adventures with a touch of mystery, you’ll love Ghosthunter, the fifth Mythic West novel.

About the author

A fourth generation Coloradoan, Edward J. Knight only left the Denver-Boulder area long enough to learn how to put a satellite into orbit. Four satellites (and counting) later, he’s returned to both the mountains and writing fantastical fiction. Along the way, he met the love of his life and became the father of two wonderfully curious kids. He’s a huge fan of tightly constructed universes and smart plots. He’s also recently become a fan of historical “what ifs”. Sometimes that detail is “magical,” such as in his Mythic West novels. More of his work can be found at edwardjknight.com.
