Death isn't the end for Detective Cosmo Pritchard-it's just the beginning of his toughest case yet. With no badge, no body, and a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time (even in the afterlife), he's got one shot to uncover the truth¿ before he fades away for good. Detective Cosmo Pritchard thought death would bring him some well-earned rest. Instead, it's landed him in the middle of a supernatural mystery that refuses to let him go. Cosmo has no idea why he's been pulled back to the world of the living-or why the powers that be have tethered him to a decades-old conspiracy involving an Oregon steel company and shady dealings hidden in dusty ledgers. As he sifts through secrets that refuse to stay buried, Cosmo's instincts scream that someone alive holds the key to it all. But solving this puzzle isn't so simple when you're caught between worlds. With his trademark grit, and a growing sense that unfinished business might not be limited to the case, Cosmo must navigate stormy nights, reluctant allies, and a past that hits closer to home than he'd like. If he can uncover the truth, maybe-just maybe-he'll find the answers he's been searching for, both in life and beyond. For fans of ghostly detectives, unexpected twists, and mysteries that refuse to die, The Last Telegram is a suspenseful ride you won't soon forget!
