Reid Mercer trusts systems, labels, and late-night stock counts—not ghosts. But when a sarcastic unseen voice starts correcting his inventory in the warehouse of the Night Market Galleria, Reid discovers the impossible: the man haunting Aisle Nine is real, gorgeous, and very, very distracting.
Oliver Vale is dead, flirtatious, and trapped inside the back corridors of the Galleria with no clear memory of how he died—only the certainty that someone buried the truth. When Reid uncovers impossible stock records, hidden shipment codes, and old vault entries that should not exist, the haunting becomes more than a mystery. It becomes evidence.
Now the meticulous inventory clerk and the charming ghost have to work together to untangle a supernatural smuggling ring hidden beneath the glamour of the Night Market Galleria. Their search takes them through moonlit loading docks, cursed archives, secret passageways, and forbidden storage vaults where every clue drags Oliver closer to the truth of his murder—and closer to vanishing forever.
Reid has spent his life believing control is the only thing standing between him and disaster. Oliver has spent years fearing he’ll be remembered only for the way he died. But as long nights in deserted aisles turn into aching trust, sharp banter, and impossible intimacy, the line between investigation and desire starts to blur. Reid is falling for a man he may not be able to keep. Oliver is terrified of asking for a future he may not survive long enough to claim.
