Paranormal Mystery

The prodigal father returns—but this ghost is no holy spirit

When she runs into her friend's deadbeat dad at the local deli, undertaker Emma Lee Raines can't wait to tell Mary Anna Hardy that he's back in Sleepy Hollow, Kentucky, after five long years. Cephus Hardy may have been the town drunk, but he didn't disappear on an epic bender like everyone thought: He was murdered. And he's heard that Emma Lee's been helping lost souls move on to that great big party in the sky.

Why do ghosts always bother Emma Lee at the worst times? Her granny's mayoral campaign is in high gear, a carnival is taking over the town square, and her hunky boyfriend, Sheriff Jack Henry Ross, is stuck wrestling runaway goats. Besides, Cephus has no clue whodunit…unless it was one of Mrs. Hardy's not-so-secret admirers. All roads lead Emma Lee to that carnival—and a killer who isn't clowning around.

Re: A Ghostly Demise

I'm looking forward to traveling during my retirement. But that's a long time away!
(Kristine Murphy 9:29am August 27, 2015)

Travel
(Marissa Yip-Young 10:03am August 27, 2015)

I hope to be able to retire. Even if I can, I want to be as
active as I can.
(Edward Washington 12:05pm August 27, 2015)

I am really excited about this book. I never used to read these but absolutely love them since I have more time on my hands and can read more. Can't wait to get it
(Donna Boyer 2:43pm August 27, 2015)

I am semi-retired now and I know what I will be doing. I have always worked very long hours 7d/wk and I am going to be lazy, reading the day and evening away.
(Donna Boyer 2:45pm August 27, 2015)

It's still a long while away, but I plan on doing a lot of
traveling and relaxing.
(Christina Bowling 3:03pm August 27, 2015)

Retirement is still many years away, but I would like to help out at an animal shelter after I am retired and have the time to do so.
(Kelly Pfister 5:29pm August 27, 2015)

Travel lots and lots of travel. I have a two page list of
places I want to go.
(Diana Thomas 10:44pm August 27, 2015)

Travel and immerse myself in other cultures
(Lani Miller 7:19am August 28, 2015)

they wont have any money left when i retirement. i would love to go to Germany.
(Jennifer Beck 12:20pm August 28, 2015)

Retirement is about 40+ years away for me, so not sure yet. Travel the world, maybe?
(Lisa L. 7:26pm August 28, 2015)

retire in the sun and relax
(Debbi Shaw 10:11pm August 28, 2015)

I'm actually kind of in my retirement (of a sort) even though I'm only 41. I became disabled and lost my career about 6 years ago. I live out here in the middle of nowhere but it is quiet and beautiful. I do miss the city life once in a while (not as much since I got a kindle though lol).
(Ida Stone 3:03am August 30, 2015)

Not sure yet. That is a long way off. But I plan on volunteering and spending time traveling.
(Pam Howell 8:09am August 30, 2015)

I am retired and enjoy not having deadlines.
(Anna Speed 12:41pm August 30, 2015)

According to my husband, we will be living in a condo
somewhere. Personally, I would like to have a mobile home
so we can travel and stay wherever we want.
(Cindy Barton 12:50pm August 30, 2015)

I'll be darned! Thought I'd posted a comment earlier but don't see it. Guess that's what retirement-all of three weeks-does to you! I plan on volunteering at several organizations, all involving reading in one way or another: either tutoring, actively reading to people or introducing them to the joys of reading.
(Kathleen Bylsma 1:04pm August 30, 2015)

I should be thinking about retirement but I haven't yet!
(Denise Austin 2:22pm August 30, 2015)

Retirement - travel, drive future grand children and
current children crazy, maybe finally write down all the
crazy stories running around in my head!
(Janis Milford 8:24pm August 30, 2015)

Retirement for me will be volunteer work and traveling. Actually I'm already there, but I'm waiting on my hubby to join me so that we can take longer and better trips.
(Flora Presley 9:11pm August 30, 2015)

I am looking forward to reading, quilting, and traveling during my retirement.
(Bonnie H 9:42pm August 30, 2015)

I really should think and plan for retirement, but the only
thing I do know is that when it gets here, I want to travel
- not just the day trippy USA stuff, but the week or so long
International trips. Hopefully there will be a man to enjoy
it with. :-)
(Bonnie Davis 12:34pm August 31, 2015)

have retired three times and am back to work. I do travel some on down
times, but I really enjoy working as a security officer.
(Pat Freely 1:42pm August 31, 2015)

A stroke forced me into early retirement so I really have
no concrete plans for my "retirement"
(Janice Santillo 2:43pm August 31, 2015)

I want to become a professional reader in my retirement! Now I read every
spare moment and wish I didn't have to stop to head to the library to work. I
promise to write reviews on all those books too. I hope I'll get a chance to
cover ALL of yours.
(K'tee Bee 4:51pm August 31, 2015)

Retirement is close & I want to relocate nearer the kids, see grandkids
during the day, and read away my evenings. That would be ideal, to me. I
don't want to run for office, but I want a chance to read about your
character that does.
(Sardis Hutcherson 5:07pm August 31, 2015)

I'm joining the masses in saying retirement = travel.
(Wl Hutch 6:07pm August 31, 2015)
