Stolen Hearts: A Grace Street Mystery
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
David Randall is a lively, carefree fellow with a talent for finding things. His perfect family life is derailed when he loses his little daughter, Lindsey, in a car accident. He is haunted by her in his dreams, fearful that she blames him. Randall, thrown out by his second wife and wanting to leave a dead-end detective agency to start his own, reluctantly accepts an invitation from Camden, his psychic friend, to stay in his boarding house. Here he meets a variety of people, including Kary Ingram, the lovely young woman who, he hopes, could become the love of his life; Ellin Belton, Camden's intensely ambitious girlfriend; and an ever-changing assortment of tenants, all searching for a home and family.
When Albert Bennett, an elderly music professor, is found dead in his home, there are hints that the death was not from natural causes, but the only clue to Bennett's murder is a notebook filled with odd musical notation. Randall wants in on the case but is warned off by the police. When Randall's client, Melanie Gentry, hires him to prove her great-grandmother was murdered by her lover, John Burrows Ashford, over authorship of the song "Patchwork Melodies," Randall sets out on the investigation, also angling to find a connection to Bennett's murder, as well as to a third death, the murder of a Smithsonian director who was preparing a new PBS documentary on early American music.
When Randall's investigations lead him to another notebook, he finds not only "Two Hearts Singing," John Ashford's most famous song, but also, hidden within the cover, a valuable early copy of Stephen Foster's "Oh! Susanna."
Then things begin to get supernaturally complicated when John Ashford's spirit parks itself in Camden and refuses to leave until Randall proves Ashford's innocence.

August 1, 2011
Set in picturesque Parkland, N.C., this droll first in a new psychic series from Tesh (A Case of Imagination) introduces good-natured PI David Randall. When Melanie Gentry hires Randall to prove that her great-grandmother, Laura, was the sole composer of Patchwork Melodies, "the definitive collection" of Appalachian folksongs, she wants not only to show that reputed collaborator John Ashford stole them from Laura but also to profit from a documentary PBS is about to film on early American folk music. Randall soon finds himself following a grim trail of leads: the holder of an arcane musical notebook is murdered; a director at the Smithsonian is found dead, his collection of valuable music destroyed. What is Melanie not telling him? Can Randall's best friend, Camden, who has enormous psychic powers that work in unpredictable ways, help? The finale is a gratifying blend of the surprising and the spirited.
