I can smell her, hear her and touch her. When I see her, it’s like she never died.
Arthur, whose life was devastated by the brutal murder of his wife, must come to terms with his diagnosis of dementia. He moves into a new home at a retirement community, and shortly after, has his life turned upside down again when his wife’s ghost visits him and sends him on a quest to find her killer so her spirit can move on. With his family and his doctor concerned that his dementia is advancing, will he be able to solve the murder before his independence is permanently restricted?
A Man in Winter examines the horrors of isolation, dementia, loss, and the ghosts that come back to haunt us.

This book is a must-read for fans of character-driven mysteries and anyone seeking a poignant exploration of life’s fragility and the enduring power of love.

A book to seek out. It will grab you and its vice like grip will not let you go easily. The horror works on two levels. The horror set in the familiar is most scary. This horror bleeds into the reality of old age, we all potentially face!

Katie Marie makes the horror real, but in creating a man dealing with loss of his beloved wife while attempting to cope with the equal horror of advancing dementia, she takes horror stories to a new level. This is an important, sensitive author to watch. Very highly recommended
