Leslie Rule, daughter of best-selling crime author Ann Rule, grew up in a haunted house built on an Indian burial ground overlooking Puget Sound, where her lifelong fascination with the paranormal began. Her latest book covers stories of the restless dead, narrating the events surrounding their passing and telling of the rumored ghosts seen afterward.

“They are clamoring for attention now. In hotels and cafes and hospitals and schools and within private residences, they are trying to make us notice.”

Chapters include:

• The Ice Files. These old, unsolved cases of homicide have long gone cold, but they may be the key to the question of why certain places have been haunted for generations.
• Witch Hunt. This chapter exhumes the old stories of witch trials in Boston and Salem, placing them historically parrallel to a wave of hauntings reported in those locations.
• Victims of War. An old naval shipyard, Gettysberg and other sites related to war are explored as places where ghosts from past conflicts continue to linger in this world.
