The small town is filled with residents belonging to the Lobster Cove Ghost Hunters Society. In fact, the seaside cottage left to her by her Aunt Lorena, who shared her visions of the ghostly world. Rory intends to run her own graphic arts business, which has been a cherished dream for a long time. Now is the tine to make her dream a reality.

After being asked to speak at the Ghost Hunters Society, this began her relationship with Travis Reed, a science teacher at the middle school who was definitely NOT in to ghostly appearances. Travis is a hard believer in everything scientific. That is, until some of his students convince Rory and Travis to host a "Dumb Supper" and everything Travis has believed about ghosts being to change. This is only the start for Rory and Travis to investigate a long-time possible crime.

This installment from the Lobster Cove Series Is the first I have had the pleasure of reading. If you aren't a believe, this could certainly change your mind concerning paranormal belief. A GHOST OF A CLUE is completely spell binding and is guaranteed to keep your interest to the last page. I will make it a point to search out the other tales in this series. Debra Doggett is a gifted writer with a vivid imagination to feed the minds of the inquisitive.

SUMMARY

Rory DuMont has had enough of hiding the fact that she sees ghosts. Lobster Cove is a new start and she's determined to shed the mistakes of the past. If that means she ends up alone then so be it. What she can't seem to shed is Travis Reed, Lobster Cove's resident skeptic and biology teacher. Sparks fly when the skeptic and the psychic find themselves alone together but the sparks turn into flames when a ghost takes a personal interest in them.

EXCERPT

Rory blew out a breath. โ€œIf I tell you yes, Iโ€™m messing with you when I say there were ghosts here tonight then youโ€™re okay with that. Youโ€™re comfortable with it. If I tell you no, that there really was a ghost, two in fact, here tonight, then the train derails and you run for the hills.โ€ He stared at her for a moment with a thoughtful look on his face. โ€œTell me what you believe you saw.โ€ โ€œThe truth?โ€ Travis nodded. โ€œThe truth of what you believe you saw.โ€ โ€œThatโ€™s a very guarded way of putting it.โ€ โ€œNo. Itโ€™s a very scientific way of putting it. I canโ€™t know what to think if I donโ€™t have all the evidence.โ€ โ€œFair enough. I saw two ghosts.โ€ โ€œWhole images?โ€ โ€œOne fairly solid, a little boy and one kind of wavering, an older woman.โ€ He watched her face as she said it, and Rory held her breath, waiting for the sneer that had always accompanied any talk of her gift in the past. She would be sorry to see him walk away. Even though it had only been a few weeks, she realized sheโ€™d come to enjoy his company. Part of her knew sheโ€™d been hoping for something more, no matter how much she told herself she wasnโ€™t going to do another relationship. Still, it would hurt, and she steeled herself for the good-bye. At last he nodded. โ€œOkay, you saw two ghosts.โ€ โ€œYouโ€™re not headed for the door.โ€ โ€œThe kids arenโ€™t packed up yet.โ€ He grinned. โ€œAnd the train is still on the tracks, Ms. DuMont. Nothing's derailed yet."
