But that wont stop psychic-turned-detective Ophelia Wylde from finding fresh graves, digging up clues, and catching wanted criminalswith a little help from the dead... Dead Men Tell No Lies The Civil War is over, and many a young widow has turned to spiritualism to contact a husband on ';the other side.' But Ophelia Wylde won't be fooled twice. After wasting her money on a phony psychic, she decides if she can't beat 'em, join 'em. She leaves New Orleans and heads west, selling her services as a spiritual medium who speaks to the dead. By the time she reaches Dodge City, business is booming. Except for a handsome but skeptical bounty hunter named Jack Calder, no one suspects Ophelia of running a con gameuntil an unfortunate ';reading' of a girl who's still living exposes her to a town full of angry customers. As punishment, the mob drags Ophelia to Boot Hill and buries her alive in a fresh grave overnight. That's when the dead start speaking. To her. For real. And for dead people, they've got lots to say... ';Masterful.' True West
