Dr. Candice Martin, a former medical examiner, moved to Atlanta, Georgia, in search of a peaceful, fresh start. She built the life she had always dreamed of—until a midlife crisis shattered it. Everything unraveled after the death of the love of her life, her beloved husband, Tee Hart. Now Candice is determined to continue her profession and leave her past in Florida behind.

 

Her first obstacle is facing the American Board of Pathology to regain her license after being fired from her previous position in Orlando, Florida. She’s accustomed to speaking to the deceased—not in a supernatural way, like a ghost whisperer, but as a courtesy as she prepares their bodies for departure. It would feel wrong not to offer some kind of greeting as she readies them for their next journey.

 

Next, she must determine who is behind the recent break-in at her new home in Tuxedo Park, the wealthiest neighborhood in Atlanta, in the north-central part of Buckhead. It seems like a job for the sheriff. Tee, her adored late husband, left her immeasurable wealth. Falling in love with a younger man was never part of Candice’s plans. Still, destiny has its own predetermined course.
