Genres: Literary Fiction; Supernatural suspense

Synopsis

Cormack Grimlock thought he was in for a day of meetings, and then his wife sprung something new on him: Take Your Daughter to Work Day. And, because he’s a Grimlock and his daughter is spoiled, that means taking Aisling and her best friend Jerry to work with him.
Though he’s not generally in the field, a work illness forces Cormack out on a case … and he must take Aisling and Jerry with him. Of course, since Cormack is a reaper, that means he’s visiting the dead. Unfortunately he has to take his young charges along for the ride.
What should have been an easy collection turns into something more for Cormack when his soul runs away and he’s left to solve the murder of an unlikable man with nothing but two eight-year-olds to help him. He also has to do it without his wife finding out what he’s up to because he has no intention of getting in trouble himself.
It’s one long day for the terrible trio, and it’s going to take everyone working together to ensure things turn out exactly how they should.

Note: This is a 28,000-word short set in the Aisling Grimlock world.
