“I had a few questions.” I reached behind me and pulled the<br />

folded-up paper out of my pocket. “Well, actually, my little brother<br />

had a few questions.”<br />

He raised his eyebrows, looking surprised again, but I think<br />

a little pleased. “By all means. What can I do to help Little Keller?”<br />

“He wants to know about the equipment you use.” I laid the<br />

list on the counter, smoothing it out so he could read it despite the<br />

folds.<br />

Tucker scanned Gunner’s scratchy handwriting, a grin<br />

playing across his lips. “And how old is your brother?”<br />

“He’s ten, why?”<br />

“Wow, the kid knows his stuff. Have you looked at this?”<br />

I shook my head. “I figured the technical stuff I probably<br />

wouldn’t understand anyway.”<br />

“He’s basically asking me about all these different brands of<br />

meters and sensors and what are the best ones. To be honest, I<br />

haven’t even heard of half of them. I’m going to give him the name<br />

of a website that has a bunch of different equipment types on it with<br />

reviews of all of them. He can look into it and see what other people<br />

who have used them have said.” He glanced around on the desk until<br />

he found a pen.<br />

“Oh, man, Gunner is going to die.” I grinned. “Thanks so<br />

much.”<br />

“No problem! He wants to be a ghost hunter, huh?” Tucker<br />

finished writing and pushed the list back over to me.<br />

“Well, he’s read every book in the library on the subject,<br />

along with a ton from Amazon, and our TiVo is overflowing with<br />

recorded episodes of paranormal TV shows. I’d say yeah, he’s<br />

thinking about it.” I folded up the paper and stuck it back into my<br />

pocket.<br />

He smiled. “And what about you?”<br />

“What about me?”<br />

“Have you given the ghost hunting thing any more thought?”<br />

I should have expected that question. Honestly, the answer<br />

was a resounding yes. I had absolutely been thinking about ghost<br />

hunting all weekend. Especially once I knew I’d be seeing Tucker<br />
