Note Translation of: The restorer.
Summary Amelia Gray tiene veintisiete años y desde los quince puede ver fantasmas. Heredó el don (o maldición) de su padre, y también a través de él supo las reglas que todo médium debe respetar para poder serlo y llevar una vida tranquila: no alejarse de los campos santos; ignorar la presencia de fantasmas a su alrededor, aunque quieran hacerse presentes, y no relacionarse con personas cuyos espíritus les acechan. Amelia se dedica a restaurar cementerios de valor histórico artístico y con ello cumple con las reglas que su padre le impuso en su momento. Hasta que todo cambia. Un asesinato en uno de los cementerios en los que está trabajando la pone en contacto con un detective acechado. Los fantasmas del detective empezarán a amenazarla, pero ella no puede evitar sentirse muy atraída por él, lo que la pone en una disyuntiva extrema: elegir entre sus sentimientos y su seguridad.
My name is Amelia Gray. I'm a cemetery restorer who sees ghosts. In order to protect myself from the parasitic nature of the dead, I've always held fast to the rules passed down from my father. But now a haunted police detective has entered my world and everything is changing, including the rules that have always kept me safe. It started with the discovery of a young woman's brutalized body in an old Charleston graveyard I've been hired to restore. The clues to the killer--and to his other victims--lie in the headstone symbolism that only I can interpret. Devlin needs my help, but his ghosts shadow his every move, feeding off his warmth, sustaining their presence with his energy. To warn him would be to invite them into my life. I've vowed to keep my distance, but the pull of his magnetism grows ever stronger even as the symbols lead me closer to the killer and to the gossamer veil that separates this world from the next.
