I always start a new book with a title. My working title for Bailey Ruth’s new adventure was GHOST THROWS A HAIL MARY. All Dallas Cowboys fans recall Roger Staubach’s fabled pass and his murmured prayer to Mary. When I turned in the manuscript, the editor pointed out that readers might expect a sports novel. I agreed to GHOST ON THE CASE, but to me the book will always be GHOST THROWS A HAIL MARY. I think readers will agree.
