The Dead Guy Next Door

A nice, normal life. Is that too much to ask?

For Riley Thorn, it seems impossible. Divorced, broke, and sharing a home with a group of quirky elderly roommates, her life is far from ordinary. Add to that the hallucinations she tries to ignore, which her mom insists are signs of clairvoyance. Just when Riley thinks things can't get worse, a "so hot he should be illegal" private investigator shows up at her doorstep. He's looking for her neighbor, who unfortunately turns up murdered.

Enter Nick Santiago, the rebellious and mysterious investigator who doesn’t play by the rules. With a knack for solving mysteries and a growing interest in Riley, he finds himself drawn into her chaotic world. Riley, on the other hand, lands herself at the top of the suspect list, leaving Nick with no choice but to team up with her to crack the case.

Together, they must navigate a tangled web of suspects, secrets, and danger—all while fending off a by-the-book detective and a charismatic stranger intent on unlocking Riley’s psychic abilities. As the stakes rise, Riley and Nick race against time to uncover the truth before the killer sets their sights on her.
