Creepy story about closed up mental hospital in Michigan, a missing mental patient, and Louis Kincaid trying to solve everything on his own. This was one of the best books I've read in a long time and I literally could NOT put this one down.

Louis Kincaid The Florida PI's Thanksgiving plans with his significant other are derailed when Kincaid's foster father, Phillip, asks for his help with a delicate problem. The body of Phillip's youthful love, Claudia Olsen, has disappeared from her coffin, a travesty unearthed in the course of the demolition of the Michigan mental institution where Claudia was committed. Kincaid's search for the missing remains crosses paths with a journalist's pursuit of rumors that a serial killer, who was also a patient at the facility, is still alive and on the loose. Parrish manages to make what could be a formulaic plot fresh, both through her gift at creating sympathetic main and secondary characters and through her skill at creating suspense and sustaining a mood.
This was a really good book.Itmoves quickly and it was hardforme to put down.

This is a great Louis Kincaid mystery! Louis heads back to Michigan to help his foster father find the body of a first love who died in a sanitarium. The story gets deeper and the mystery expands as more bodies start to turn up and Louis ends up trapped in the tunnels below the sanitarium grounds. The setting is spooky and the story is a cliff hanger. If you've read other Louis Kincaid stories, you'll find out more about his background through this book. If you haven't read any of the Louis Kincaid storie, this is a great one to start with.
