A Ghost In the Darkness

In 1996, the brutal murder of Vicki Bader made headlines and fueled the gossip mill in the small town of Stratham, New Hampshire. When Vicki's ex-husband, defense lawyer Seth Bader, was arrested and convicted for the crime, locals believed justice had been served. So did Jonathan Kiper, a young neighbor and friend of Seth and Vicki's teenaged son, Joe. That is, until Jon discovered a terrible truth-- maybe Seth wasn't guilty after all. Now, twenty years later, he's doing the only thing he can do-- bringing that truth to light, hoping for some kind of redemption. 



Part true crime tell-all, part poignant coming-of-age memoir, A Ghost in the Darkness is one man's story of regret, anxiety, and fear. It's his shoot-the-moon attempt at saving one man's life, and in the process, maybe his own.
