Wraith

Death wasn't the end of everything for Warren Sumner, not with unfinished business to attend to and a partner to kill.

Infuriated over the late night attack that has left him and his children murdered and his wife fighting for her life in an ICU, Warren returns to the world of the living to take revenge against the trio of street thugs who attacked them, and also against Jordan, his business partner, who has embezzled their investment firm's assets.

It's a race against time as Jordan prepares to flee the country, taking millions of dollars with him in an elaborate scheme to elude law enforcement. In order to to keep the firm from collapsing, leaving all of its employees and investors destitute, Warren struggles to find a way to stop him… not an easy task for a disembodied person with no easy way to communicate with the living.

"Bolton gets into the meat of relationships, and makes you care about his characters – which is all too rare, yet essential, in horror. Combined with a cracking story, it makes for quite the read!"
~ Paul Kane – award-winning and bestselling author of Hooded Man, Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell, and Arcana.

"Raymond Bolton's Wraith presents an intriguing view of the intersections between the living and the dead. Beginning with a triple murder, this dark paranormal novel explores the consequences of betrayal, greed, infidelity, and vengeance on both sides of mortality…and in each instance, provides unexpected twists that propel readers onward, page after page. Bolton deftly shifts perspectives between the world of the Wraith and those he pursues with a fury that transcends death itself."
