Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The elderly die in nursing homes. That's a given. But sometimes they have help.For two-thirds of his formative years, Kip Patterson lived in a privately owned nursing home, but at thirteen, he was sent away without explanation or warning. Fifteen years later, two weeks before Christmas, he's called home to attend one more funeral and soon discovers an undercurrent of danger lingering within the labyrinth of ancient halls.With an innate ability to read auras and judge when a resident becomes terminal, he's determined to maintain his emotional distance from the current residents. The old regime has passed, his obligations fulfilled regarding his mother's funeral, and he intends to depart when he receives the first letter from the deceased. In self-preservation, Kip's developed an emotional shield, but his chilly armor cracks when his single childhood friend, JD Mulden, arrives. The chasm widens with his attraction to JD's little sister, Kelly. Unbeknownst to Kip, he was Kelly's first-and only-case of puppy love, but there's a problem. She's engaged! Kip struggles through a matrix of lies and deceit, searching for the truth behind a conspiracy that implicates him in murder. Meanwhile, Kelly wages an internal war, wanting, needing to be the one Kip turns to in his sorrow. No one is who he appears to be in this psychological suspense/murder mystery, and untangling the secrets within Whistlebrook Nursing Home could make one reconsider his end-of-life plan.
