Living With the Past — Dayle A. Dermatis

Former Hollywood party girl Nikki Ashburne sees ghosts -- in fact, many of them are her friends. Okay, they're kind of her only friends. Most ghosts stick around because they're happy here and have no desire to move on…but sometimes, they need help.

Like when a decades-dead Marilyn Monroe impersonator wants Nikki to find her granddaughter. In Los Angeles.

Yeah. That'll be easy.

Another story in the Nikki Ashburne urban fantasy series, “Living With the Past” originally appeared in Fantastic Detectives (Fiction River, 2014).
