Negotiating (with) the Dead
“Someone should speak to the dead... The dead will know who killed them.”
When the bodies started showing up along the River of the Dead, everyone had a theory. Everyone except Alasdair Johnson.
Since he was young, Alasdair could sense with the supernatural, whether or not he wanted to. As an adult, he'd much rather be left alone by both the dead and the living. He definitely isn't keen to get involved in this whole "dead bodies" thing.
But as a former-child medium and a potent magnet for the dearly and nearly departed, Alasdair has a feeling that he's going to get dragged into it. Because he always does.
(And he's got the scars to prove it.)
"Negotiating (with) the Dead" is A. Nixon's debut novel. It chronicles the misadventures of a reluctant medium in a world where ghosts, necromancers, and the cops that investigate them are just a part of any regular Monday.

January 27, 2019This was a lot of fun to write! I tried to make it as snarky, funny, and as full of adventure as any book that I enjoy reading. With a twist of ghosts and some hermit-y, asocial tendencies, I hope it will be something that you enjoy as well.
