One night late in May, 1937, a terrible tragedy strikes the small Canadian town of Chaseford. As roaring flames consume the house of one of Chaseford's most distinguished families, it seems as if all the town's recently renewed hopes for the future have been reduced to ashes. The plan to build an airport on the edge of town-a symbolic end to the Great Depression-has been put in doubt.

People are talking about the arson, and fingers are being pointed. Is Evan Donnelly, the unscrupulous moneylender who seems to be behind so many of Chaseford's troubles, somehow involved? With nothing but rumors to guide him, and no clear motive for the crime, Detective Joel Franklin will have to rely on his unusual gift to contact 'essences'-the personalities of those who have died in tragic and painful circumstances-to solve the mystery.

When a destitute family moves into the former home of Sadie Morgan-a woman with piercing eyes who died under mysterious circumstances-a shadowy history comes to light. Sadie's picture still hangs on the wall of 24 Booke Street, casting her baleful gaze on all who come before her. Will Sadie finally get to enjoy her long-awaited revenge, the culmination of a feud that has lasted for centuries?

24 Booke Street is the seventh installment in the Joel Franklin Mystery series, which began with Lightning at 200 Durham Street. Set in the small town of Chaseford in rural Ontario, Canada, this paranormal historical whodunit with a cast of recurring characters harks back to the Golden Age of detective fiction. A real treat for readers of all ages.
