The lilac-printed scarf had brought back memories of her. Kelly had been beautiful, the last time he’d seen her. She’d been dressed in a simple cotton sundress, white with tiny sprigs of purple flowers in a repeating pattern. She’d looked so fresh and innocent that he almost hadn’t believed what she’d told him. Only the tears running down her cheeks had convinced him that she’d been telling the truth about their baby.

How could a night that had been so thrilling turn out to be such a disaster? He could still see her face in the light of the fire and feel the soft, satiny warmth of her skin. It should have been a happy memory for him, but it wasn’t. Not now. Not after what had happened.

He leaned back against the pillow and closed his eyes. He still had ten minutes before he had to go downstairs and he needed to rest his eyes. He hadn’t been sleeping well lately and he was very tired.

And then he saw Kelly’s face again, as her car went out of control. Her mouth was open and she was screaming, begging for someone to rescue her. The car swerved down the hill, riding the lip of the ditch, heading straight for the crossing. And then the train rounded the bend, brakes squealing and sparking as they tried in vain to halt the tons of hurtling metal.

At the last instant, she turned to look out the window. And her eyes locked with his in a steady bond that no earthly force could break. And her beautiful lips formed the words that made up the restless terror of his sleep. Murderer! I’ll get you for this!

He sat up with a jolt, sweating and feverish. It was the same dream, the same horrible message. But it was only a dream, nothing more. He hadn’t been there to see the accident. Kelly had never seen him. He’d been miles away and there had been no way at all for Kelly to guess that he had killed her.

But did Kelly know the truth now, after her death? And was there some means for her to take her revenge? He shook his head in denial as he got up to pace the floor. There was no such thing as a ghost or a spirit. Dead was dead, and Kelly had ceased to exist on any plane. There was no possible way that the dead could hurt the living. But the living could hurt the living, and someone was trying to hurt him.

He frowned as he thought about Zada. He’d killed her because he’d thought she’d known Kelly’s secret. But killing Zada hadn’t stopped the threat. Someone else knew.

Melanie had received the note and he’d been sure that she was the one. But Melanie’s death hadn’t solved the problem, and now there was Ronnie. Someone knew Kelly’s secret. He just wished he could figure out who it was!

Now someone was forcing him to kill again. Another note, another death. It was a horrible equation, but he had little choice.
