about the book
 
A supernatural Tales of the City, The Ghosts of Partition Street chronicles the interconnected lives led inside a venerable Brooklyn brownstone. When aspiring writer Daniel Miller moves into the aging building, he unwittingly drafts an ancient text capable of opening the gates between the living and the deceased. It is called the Libromuralis or Book of the Wall. Now the book's original author plots to return from the dead with Daniel's new neighbors as his resurrectionists.

A former child star; a schizophrenic FBI agent; a sister in mourning; an enigmatic gay couple: one by one, the residents of 210 Partition must confront an elusive enemy and their most private demons. The Ghosts of Partition Street explores the transformative powers of grief, the many ways in which we can be haunted, and how far we'd go to undo the inevitability of death itself.
