Chasing Ghosts - Paperback

Nic is a successful ghost writer, making a decent living churning out best-selling autobiographies of celebrities and other notable figures. She's also a recovering alcoholic--three years sober and still tempted, every day, to open the bottle again.

Luckily she has distractions--this time in the form of Isobel DeWitt, an award-winning and well-loved actor in her prime, who has decided to release a tell-all autobiography. Nic finds her likeable, charming and fascinating...but also impossible to crack. Every draft sounds like just another magazine piece full of perfectly crafted sound bytes, but there's no soul.

Undeterred, Nic continues to dig into the actor's history in search of the clue that will unlock it all and finds it in the form of one Melody Graham, a reclusive playwright and, if rumours are to be believed, Isobel's erstwhile lover. Nic chances everything to reach out to her and unbelievably she responds, sharing stories about her time with the tempestuous actress and helping Nic get further and further into Isobel's head. The problem now is figuring out where Isobel Dewitt starts and Nic ends...
