The mortician's legacy : Maralee Lowder.
(Book)

When Ada, the morticians wife, killed him, instead of following the light to everlasting life he chose to remain within the walls of the old mortuary, tormenting first Ada, then every other person who dared to make the building their home. Upon her death, Ada left the building and all of its contents to her dearest friend, Emily, trusting her to find a way to protect others from her husbands vicious soul. Emilys first reaction to the fateful legacy she had inherited was to try to forget the building even existed. Unfortunately, it called out to others, intriguing them to try their luck and make it into their home, with dire results. Against her better judgment Emily agreed to sell the mortuary to a young couple who wanted to turn it into a bed-and-breakfast. But only if they allowed her to strip away everything that Horace might have touched while living there. With his curiosity piqued, the man she entrusted with Horaces belongings could not resist looking into one of the bags. There, laying at the very top, was a vintage mans leather jacket, far too special to be thrown away. There was no way the man could have known the jacket he rescued from the dump contained the spirit of one of the most evil men who ever lived. That whoever wore the jacket risked trading souls with one of the most evil men who ever lived.
