So the brother who was missing is now officially dead. But then the worst possible thing really happens: Maxine receives a telephone call from somebody saying he is her brother.

The Bones of Cathy King
Ghosts, are they for real or are they just the product of a vivid imagination? Using some personal experiences the author examines seven different aspects of 'the other side' looking at such things as the astral plane, polterghiests, ghosts of murdered children, corn dollies and the power of the African 'Obi' man. All are put into the context of the 21st century and set against the ludicrous politcally correct target setting agenda of New Labour Britain. This is the second work in the Riviera trilogy introducing some extremely interesting characters to the story.
