Wow! I really like a sensible ghost story and Heather Graham delivers a great one in Deadly Harvest, the second installment in her Flynn brother’s trilogy. Aidan, Jeremy and Zach Flynn inherited a mansion outside of New Orleans from a nice-aunt whom they need never heard of before her death. Aidan, the oldest of the brothers and his currently-wife Kendall cater to their own ghosts that haunt the mansion in Deadly Night.
Deadly Harvest opens in New Orleans just before Halloween as Jeremy Flynn is concerned during a series of debates with Rowenna Cavanaugh on the use of paranormal skills in detective work. Rowenna is open to the chances however Jeremy is adamantly closed-minded. Still the debates are a nice money-raiser for Aidan and Kendall Youngsters's House charities.

Jeremy and Rowenna, for various reasons and totally different ways, are held in the same mystery back in Rowenna's hometown of Salem, Massachusetts. The wife of Jeremy's ex-partner vanishes in skinny air from a cemetery on Halloween in the middle of town when Salem is packed with tourists.
The detective on the case is the father of the man Rowenna was to marry until her groom-to-be was killed in Iraq. She remains as shut to him as if truly was her father-in-law by marriage. Joe will not like private investigators like Jeremy Flynn, however through her, they forge an uneasy alliance.
Although she denies having a 'gift' or any psychic skills, Rowenna 'sees' things and will sometimes place herself into a victim's place to resolve crimes. This ability leads her to the body of a young woman who has been strangled and hung up like a scarecrow. Since it is not Jeremy's friend, the chilling realization that a serial killer is loose soaks into the shut-knit community.
Jeremy stays shut-minded however is haunted by the ghost of a young boy Billy who drowned several years before. Jeremy was a forensic diver some time past and was unable to save lots of Billy. He continues to torture himself for not being there two minutes earlier that he may have saved him. But as with Deadly Night, Deadly Harvest contains a benevolent ghost and in this case, it's young Billy. The reader gets the notion that Billy isn't vengeful long before Jeremy does.
Not like the primary book though, Deadly Harvest contains many disturbing references to demonism, since the murderer in the story is attempting to become the Prince of Darkness in the flesh and must sacrifice young ladies to achieve his goal.
