Anyone who dies with unfinished business wakes up as a ghost. If this wasn't enough, the casket will only release them once they accept their new status, adding a whole new level of terror.
But today's arrival stays quiet until the last mourner, a young woman at the front of the funeral procession, finally leaves...
That is when the screaming starts.
R.W. Wallace writes in most genres, though she tends to end up in mystery more often than not. Dead bodies keep popping up all over the place whenever she sits down in front of her keyboard.
The stories mostly take place in Norway or France; the country she was born in and the one that has been her home for two decades. Don’t ask her why she writes in English – she won’t have a sensible answer for you.
Her Ghost Detective short story series appears in Pulphouse Magazine, starting in issue #9.
