A GHOUL'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER is the final book in
Victoria Laurie's Ghost Hunter series. Because the
past
very much impacts the present in this book, you really
have to have read the majority of the previous books in
order to fully appreciate and enjoy A GHOUL'S GUIDE TO
LOVE AND MURDER. As it's a favorite series of mine, I am
sorry to see this Ghost Hunter series end. However,
Victoria Laurie pulls out all the stops for this final
book and remains true to the main characters. As with the
previous books, A GHOUL'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER is
full of plenty of spooks and scares to get your heart
racing and keep you on the edge of your seat. To counter
all the suspense, M.J.'s best friend Gilley acts as a
kind of Lucy Ricardo character and is a source of
consternation, amusement, and friendly support.
As the book's description suggests, there are villains
from the past that resurface and cause trouble. M.J. And
Heath are pushed to their limits as the story progresses
and they have to deal with a cornucopia of evil spirits.
The excitement increases tenfold by having the danger
come from so many different sources. M.J. And her team
have several mysteries to solve including a murder, a
missing artifact, how to stop the malevolent spirits, and
who is behind it all. The unlikely and somewhat reluctant
cop ally adds depth to the story. As always, the pacing
is extremely fast and makes you keep reading without
stopping. Even though this is the last book in the
series, I love the inventive new way that M.J.'s crew
devises, out of necessity, to bust ghosts.
A GHOUL'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER is a fitting finale
and unearthly tour de force of epic proportions. If
you
love a good ghost story, this Ghost Hunter series by
Victoria Laurie is a must-read. Victoria Laurie injects
just the right amount of romance and humor to relieve the
incredible tension, without watering down the more
terrifying elements. I eagerly await the next super scary
book by Victoria Laurie and my next adrenaline fix.
Medium M. J. Holliday battles demons in the tenth Ghost
Hunter Mystery from the New York Times bestselling
author of No Ghouls Allowed.
M.J., Heath,
and Gilley, are back home in Boston, where their new film is
sure to be a monster hit! To promote the film,
the studio is sponsoring a special exhibit of supernatural
artifacts at a local museum. Unfortunately, Gilley—whose
mind is engaged with wedding plans—gets talked into donating
to the exhibit the very dagger that keeps the dangerous
ghost Oruç and his pet demon locked down in the lower
realms. Before M.J. can recover the bewitched blade, there’s
a murder and a heist at the museum, and the dagger is
stolen.
Now Oruç is coming for M.J. and her
crew, and he's bringing with him some fiendish friends from
M.J.’s haunted past. She, Gilley, and Heath are certain to
be in for a devil of a time. M.J. may even need to recruit a
certain skeptical Boston detective to help stop the
paranormal party crashers from turning Gilley’s wedding
bells to funeral knells. . . .
