"Rolling Stone" Jazz Record Guide by John Swenson
Can a dark secret shatter the soul?While attempting to help an unsettled soul cross into the light, a spirit escort learns an unexpected truth on the battlefield of Shiloh.While Gillian Foster's unexpected gift appears to make her a spirit escort helping lost souls to cross into the light of whatever lies beyond the grave, she is finding that most go easily, some don't even wait, but there are those.Helping one soul to move on brings Gillian into contact with another lingering ghost, who needs more than just a guide to the next life and she is his only hope. Her band mates in Spicy Jam are pressing her to set up the overdue recording session. Complicating matters, she is trying to cope with the aftermath of a near fatal encounter of her own with a child killer while keeping the sordid details secret from her friends. With a trial looming in the future, a promise made to a ghost, and an album to record, she may be pushing herself too hard.In the second book of the Funeral Singer series, author Lillian I Wolfe takes the story into the past as the Funeral Singer learns that her tasks aren't always a stroll in the park-like cemetery. A Song for Menafee picks up where the first book, A Song for Marielle, left off. While the story is complete, it refers back to events in book one, so it's advisable to read the first book before reading this one.John Swenson has been a syndicated columnist for more than 20 years at UPI and Reuters.
