The Corpse Walker

Haze is an old man with a terrible gift, the ability to briefly reanimate the dead. Haze finds himself enlisted to help search for a missing woman and identify the person responsible for her disappearance. What he finds instead follows him, stalks him, and demands he wreak the vengeance she no longer can.

A High Strangeness prequel and Apartment 239 sequel, this is also included in my Ash and Bone short story collection.
