Bailey Ruth loves to return to earth as an emissary from
Heaven’s Department of Good Intentions. Problem is, she’s a bit of a loose
cannon as far as ghosts go—forgetting to remain invisible, alarming earthly
creatures—so she’s far from the top of department head Wiggins’s go-to list for
assignments.
That’s why she’s surprised when the Heaven-sent Rescue
Express drops her off at a frame house on the outskirts of her old hometown,
Adelaide, Oklahoma, where a young man is playing the drums. What kind of
rescuing does he need—drum lessons? But when a window cracks and a rifle barrel
is thrust inside, only Bailey Ruth’s hasty intervention saves Nick Magruder
from taking a bullet. When she materializes to reassure him, she finds she
can’t go back to vanishing. What gives?
It turns out she’s been tricked by Nick’s late aunt—Delilah
Delahunt Duvall—to come to the young man’s rescue, which means she isn’t back
on earth in service of the department. Wiggins has no idea where she is—and now
she may be trapped in Adelaide forever. Unless she can help Aunt Dee snare the
person who wants her nephew dead.
