As Stella investigates, she gets help from a most unlikely source – the ghost of Eric Gamlyn, Sweet Pepper’s old fire chief. And if that isn’t enough to take Stella off her game, smoking hot police officer John Trump seems to have an eye for her. But Stella’s got to stay focused or her own life may get extinguished.
