When Shadows Walk is Ms. Pittman's debut murder mystery novel. It is being touted as "Agatha Christie with a paranormal twist." Three family antebellum plantation homes bordering Lake Broussard in deep south Louisiana. One tragedy long ago and five recent mysterious deaths haunt this idyllic inlet. Now, something is walking, moving through darkened hallways, along the moonlit shoreline, and within cloaked gardens. It's reaching out with clues to its murder...but which murder? One thing is certain: "When shadows walk, something evil is about to happen." The Broussard family goes back generations. They built three plantation homes surrounding their private lake and filled them with everything wealth could provide. Yet, in the wee morning hours, when lights are extinguished and all should be at rest, something is floating along the massive stairway and tapping at doors. The sound of rushing water and tortured screams fills the hallways of these monied mansions. In the vast gardens of the Broussard estate, a solitary candle floats among the Windemere roses and peers into the secret folly hidden in the shadows. Before long, Lake Broussard will witness five murders. Before Detective Hilliard and Lieutenant Calvo can solve the myriad mysteries surrounding this family, they will have to suspend their disbelief in the paranormal. For it is with the ghostly appearances and clues that they will have their only chance of putting an end to the killings before someone else dies. Dive into this paranormal murder mystery. Solve it, if you can. Wait! What is that sound outside your bedroom door? Is it the sound of someone tapping? Check out Rebecca F. Pittman's other books at www.rebeccafpittmanbooks.com.
