T.L. Hines | The Dead Whisper On

Published: June 30, 2008

Candace "Canada Mac" MacHugh lives a ghost of her former life.

Once a proud Butte miner who risked her life setting explosives, she's now a garbage collector in her dying hometown. Her beloved father is dead and she doesn't speak with her mom.

Canada Mac is alone, longing for the past and dreaming of making a difference, until one night when her father's voice speaks to her from the shadows, with warnings of impending disasters and grave danger.

Author Tony L. Hines, who resides in Billings, has been a professional writer for more than 16 years, with articles appearing in publications as varied as Log Homes, Food & Wine and Travel & Leisure. His first novel, Waking Lazarus, was published in 2006 and earned a spot on the Library Journal "25 Best Genre Books of 2006" list.

“A miner-turned-garbage collector is the refreshingly different protagonist of this sophomore horror outing by Hines [who] writes with wry humor and imagination," lauds Publisher’s Weekly. The book was published by Bethany House and sells for $13.99.
