Book Description
Walter Jefferson is dead. But he is far from gone. He hovers like a cloud over his former hometown, picking up strands of memory from every corner. He even befriends a living woman, an artist called Katherine. Although no words pass between them, he takes Katherine's part against her bullying family, believing himself to be a sensitive understanding soul - until he remembers his own past...
And so begins a fearful journey of self-discovery as he wrestles with two worlds, past and present, and tries to find an answer to the jigsaw of his life and death.
