The Girl Vanished

Della James Mysteries Book One

In the small, lakeside Adirondack town of Bellegrave, New York, the dead hold dangerous secrets, and only Dr. Della James can speak to them.

As director of the Bellegrave Historical Society, Della’s biggest concern is the annual fundraiser and gala for Founder’s Day, which keeps the society’s living history museum operating. So when her best friend Detective Carmen Neil asks for her help in investigating a cold case of a girl who disappeared and was presumed murdered twenty-seven years ago, Della only agrees to help by accompanying Carmen to the girl’s childhood home to see if she can communicate with her spirit and provide Carmen with fresh leads.

Only to discover the girl is not among the dead.

This time the dead want revenge…

When Dr. Della James is lured to the island home of the abandoned girls camp, she discovers a body in a sealed barrel, hauntingly preserved. When the identity of the victim is revealed to be Sadie Beaumont, a local girl presumed drowned in the summer of 1984, Della refuses to get involved in the investigation after her last one ended in gunfire.

But when Sadie’s ghost manifests on the island, calling for help, Della is the only one who can hear her.
