Jordan Marsh is slowly but surely settling into her new
home and totally different life in Port Chatham,
Washington. After the surprise of learning that she is
sharing her lovely new, but slightly bedraggled, Victorian
home with not one but three former ghostly residents,
Jordan has grown used to their company and is excited about
proceeding with her plans to renovate the charming old
home. She has also made fast friends with Darcy Moran, the
town's police chief and handsome Jase Cunningham, former
lawyer/current pub owner.
But murder has an odd way of following Jordan around and,
sure enough, during a beach hike she and Darcy stumble
across the body of local playboy Holt Stillwell, who has
been shot in the forehead. And if that wasn't traumatic
enough, Holt's ancestor Michael Seavey, the area's most
infamous shanghaier, has materialized in Jordan's house,
seeking her help in solving his own death in a suspicious
shipwreck in 1893.
Jordan has her hands full not only with real-life and
ghostly investigations, but with someone who doesn't want
her finding out the truth behind either murder. With a
little help from Darcy, Jase, and her other friends, Jordan
must race to find the clues that will lead to the killer
before she risks becoming a member of the ghostly community
herself!
GHOST SHIP: A Port Chatham Mystery is the second book in
P.J. Alderman's lively and fun-filled series. Alderman's
characters are personable, smart, and full of curiosity,
which makes them great sleuths. And in a town full of
ghostly residents, there are plenty of mysteries to keep
everyone busy for a long time to come! Can't wait to find
out how Jordan's restoration and romantic efforts are
proceeding in the next book!
RITA-nominated author P. J. Alderman’s delightful new
mystery series blends haunting ghosts with hunting criminals
as therapist Jordan Marsh dives deep into the past to solve
a modern murder.
A recent transplant to
Washington State’s charming seaside town of Port Chatham,
Jordan is still getting used to sharing her slightly
run-down but historic lodging with ghosts. As if living with
the long-deceased isn’t enough of a challenge, she’s just
found a corpse: The town’s notorious womanizer Holt
Stillwell is lying on the beach with a bullet in his
head.
Before Jordan can reel in a suspect, another
victim surfaces. And this one isn’t taking murder lying
down. Holt’s ancestor Michael Seavey, the Pacific
Northwest’s most infamous shanghaier, has materialized in
Jordan’s house, seeking to solve his own death in a
suspicious shipwreck in 1893. With two murders to solve and
a killer on the loose, Jordan faces yet another equally
terrifying prospect: her growing attraction to the very
alive and criminally attractive pub owner Jase Cunningham.
