L.E. Modesitt, Jr., author of the Imager Portfolio and the Saga of Recluce, continues his Ghost Book series, in a world where ghosts are very real, in this sequel to Of Tangible Ghosts.

Professor Johan Eschbach had hoped for a quiet life in retirement from the intelligence service, teaching environmental science and living with his new wife, but an unusual invitation from the Mormon nation of Deseret inexorably drags him back into the spy business, though he isn't quite sure why or for whom. It quickly becomes apparent that he is being used as a pawn in a deadly game of international maneuverings that are leading the world closer to war.

Praise for this book

“Both morally persuasive and emotionally wrenching.” —The New York Times on Adiamante

“Meticulously extrapolated...Alternate world tales and espionage thrillers both demand an abundance of intricate detail to be convincing and Modesitt doesn't stint for either thread of his narrative.” —The Washington Post Book World on Of Tangible Ghosts

“A mystery with an other-wordly difference. Modesitt deftly works out what the political and social consequences might have been had ghosts actually existed.” —Jack McDevitt on Of Tangible Ghosts
