Latent Lives (A John Stauer and Linda Lavaque Murder Mystery) (Volume 1)

The third book in the John Stauber & Linda Lavaque Murder Mysteries Series. The man lying in the morgue was definitely dead. And yet John Stauber found himself carrying on a conversation with him... "But how do you know who I am? You can't know that." John sighed. "Let me give it a try. You're with the FBI, or, rather, the BOI, the Bureau of Investigation. Your name is Lionel Cromwell and you went down with the Morning Star in nineteen twenty-three." Agent Cromwell's mouth dropped open and John could see the man's faculties beginning to shut down. Obviously John had shocked the hell out of him. "How - how could you know...'" "Fingerprints." "Fingerprints? But - but how did you get my fingerprints?" "They were taken off your body. After you were shot dead a few days ago out on Park Point." "What? You mean they kill me? I'm dead...'" "Look...none of this is making any sense. You're dead. You're on a slab in the morgue even as we speak. So... how is it I'm talking to you right now?"

What Andrew was doing simply was not possible. And the impossible is always of interest to the police.
