Callie Jamieson was eight years old when her mother was dragged off in a strait jacket. Despite the diagnosis, Callie knew her mother wasn’t insane: just haunted – by the same “gray people” who haunt Callie.
Now an investigative reporter in New York City, Callie is called to the scene of a suicide that changes her life the minute she walks through the door. Wilty Hale -- her former lover -- was the heir to a billion-dollar fortune and never showed any signs of wanting to end his life.
When she begins her research for a memorial series in honor of Wilty, she finds that all the Hale heirs have died prematurely under very unusual circumstances…
Did Wilty stumble upon a murderous secret?
Determined to find Wilty’s killer, Callie teams up with an enticing detective to learn the truth. As she digs further into the Hale family history -- and sparks between the two begin to fly -- Callie discovers some secrets are worth killing for...
Filled with intense hair-raising drama and intrigue, Before and Again is a scintillating thriller. Fans of Barbara Delinsky, Mary Alice Monroe, and Diane Chamberlain will devour this classic Doris Mortman novel.
