    About this ebook

    Creole gentleman Remy Pigeon has a gift, or a curse. He can touch objects and read the past from them.

    He prefers to stay away from trouble, but when an attractive red-head with a serious problem and a supernatural secret wanders into his house on a hot summer day, Remy knows that trouble has just found him.

    "Flashover" is a paranormal mystery short story.
