Summary
Buck rocks the crying baby in his arms, tears gathering in his own eyes. Every hiccuping sob is like a knife to his heart.
The loft is dark and still around him, the creaking of the glider and Carter’s cries the only sounds. His neighbors must hate him right now, in this nebulous time after midnight and before dawn.
He can’t do this. This was—
He can’t do this.
Holding Carter against his shoulder, he fumbles his phone out of the pocket of his sweats and swipes it on, going to his contacts. It rings for what feels like an hour before Maddie picks up.
“Buck? What—”
“I shouldn’t have done this,” he interrupts, the guilt of calling her in the middle of the night washing away in the relief of hearing her voice. “Maddie, I shouldn’t have done this.” He’s aware of his growing hysteria but lacks the energy to tamp it down.
OR: Buck feels overwhelmed after deciding to foster a baby boy. Luckily, he has Maddie--and Eddie--to help him out.

What do you do when you're the sole clueless observer of a grief response gone wrong?
What do you do when you stumble upon the fragments of a ghost's memories and possessions squirreled away and haunting your home?
What do you do when you blunder into the ability to harness the power of thinking and speaking someone back into begrudging form?
I knew you, Eddie thinks. I KNOW you. I believe in you. I need you. Come back.

Summary
“Victim is Charles Dumont. Three gunshot wounds to the chest. Looks like an attempted robbery. There was a case of bourbon with a bottle missing and we found Charlie’s wallet tossed a few blocks from here. And Eddie?” Athena stopped just as she got to the door and turned him with a serious expression on her face. “There’s a witness.”
Her frown dipped under the professional mask she was known for and Eddie caught the flicker of concern pulling at her composure.
“You know him?”
Athena pressed her lips into a tight line and nodded.
“Evan Buckley. He’s the bartender here. He was helping Charlie restock tonight when he heard a noise and saw it happen.”
Homicide Detective, Eddie Diaz, is called in to investigate the murder of a local shield and ladder bar owner. There he meets his only witness, Evan "Buck" Buckley.
