When Artists Are Too Old to Be “Emerging”

In Amber Sparks' "The Case of the Girl Who Was Already Dead" a living dead agent should be out hunting the cryptid known as the Bray Road Beast, but then a young girl, the daughter of a dead father and living mother, asks for some help with her ghosts.This story has a very Wisconsin Death Trip feel!
