DOWNLOAD EBOOKDo you like a good ghost, alien, angel, rock n roll coming of age story thats really screwed up? This may be your type of tale! More than two decades following his fifteen seconds of fame, former 1980s rock star Steve Finney now entertains in the Florida Keys as a part-time lounge act and full time bartender. Old friends drag Steve out of the tropical hideout back up to his old home state of Maine for, of all things, a high school reunion and a funeral. But then the inevitable trip back in time and to his old hometown up north gets weird as ancient aliens, angels, and ghosts from the past and present (are they all the same?) try to guide Steve on and off the path. Joining the former rockers coming-of-age journey are some equally confused old friends. The restaurant manager who hates people. A medium who chaotically misinterprets the latest cause he is involved with and the voices he hears, and another buddy whose family is dying off like an endangered species. All of these events come to a head during another summer in the small tourist trap town of Acorn Bay, Maine. Oh yeah, and theres a thirty-eight-pound talking lobster.

Admittedly, she hasn't had the best of luck with relationships and the chance of falling in love with any of Gin Cove's population is slim to none. Carolyn Stanley, a successful defense attorney from Bar Harbor, has found that she enjoys vacationing and spending time in Gin Cove. When Carolyn sends her high-speed power boat careening across the water on an otherwise quiet morning, splashing Molly's lobster boat and nearly sending her overboard, Molly is ready to throttle the out-of-towner. The sparks that fly between the two women soon turn to fascination and anticipation as their attraction sizzles. But when someone close to Molly becomes embroiled in a murder investigation in her hometown, their fiery relationship may finally fizzle out—for good.
