The Book of Illumination

The criminal underworld meets the spiritual otherworld in this thrilling debut collaboration between the inspiration for television's The Ghost Whisperer and an award-winning writer/director. Anza O'Malley is seemingly a typical single mom. But there is more to Anza than meets the eye: she can see and speak with ghosts. Although she's been solving cold cases for the police for years, Anza has been hoping to focus her energies on her son and her bookbinding career. But when an exquisite illuminated manuscript is stolen from the Boston Athenaeum, and when its desecration spurs the appearance of some very unhappy spirits, Anza can neither look nor walk away. With an unlikely trio of ghosts by her side — a charming butler and two medieval monks — Anza leads us on an urgent journey through Boston's winding, cobbled streets to uncover a trail of deceit, danger and ghoulish intrigue.
