When my ex and I were looking at the house we bought, on our first walkthrough, I noticed the space between two rooms didn’t add up, and there must be hidden space behind the paneling in one room. Our agent joked that maybe there’s a dead body stashed in there.
Fast forward a year, he writes a short novel about a real estate agent who finds a dead body in a house during a walkthrough.
A similar thing happened where I grew up. An old farm sold to become a strip mall, during preliminary stuff they discovered a bunch of shallow graves. Since they were likely native American given the area (depending on which side of a river it could be native Americans or civil war soldiers), they were reburied in a large mound near the back of the lot.
Since it’s next to a pet store, people walk their dogs to piss and shit all over it.
And that about sums up local feelings for natives.

Still can’t get over that.

not my ex, our real estate agent
It didn’t sell much at all, very crudely done book. But he’s a sweet guy and he has a lot of people who think well of him who gave him accolades.
He’s made a couple sequels too.
