Setup for this snippet: Last week, Cecilia asked her father, who is a ghost, why he believed someone was following him before he died. This is continued from last week. (Cecilia's POV.)
"I thought Phoebe, your mother," he corrected as if she didn't know her own mother's first name, but she didn't say anything and let him talk. "I thought she was having me followed."
"Any reason why she would?" Like you're a lying cheating jerk. She inwardly blanched at where her thoughts had led her. She blamed the Internet for jading her opinion of him. Maybe she should hear him out. Let him tell his side of the story.
"Your mother thought I was cheating on her," he offered without her having to say it out loud.
Lars Gunner, the frontman for Silent Plaids, died 23 years ago and his death was ruled an unfortunate accident. Despite the fact he can't recall what happened to him in his last moments of life, he is convinced he was murdered. He has been trapped in limbo until his daughter, Cecilia, unearths his journal and is able to see him. She seeks help from Kaleb, a psychic, but as they resurrect the past, the secrets and lies surrounding Lars' rock and roll life just may be the death of them too.
