Things are never quiet for long at the Haunted Guesthouse. Right as Alison Kerby finally gets some peace, long-time deceased Paul Harrisonโs recently murdered brother, Richard, shows up looking for the ghostly detective. But Paul has left for parts unknown months ago. The only thing is, she doesnโt know how to find him. And sheโs going to need to because Richardโs isnโt the only murder still left unsolved.
As she searches for Paul, Alison discovers that Richard, who was a lawyer, was working a case about a woman accused of murdering her stepfather. It quickly becomes clear that Richard was getting too close to the truth, and was forcibly kept quiet. Now as Alison continues her investigation, she gets a creeping sensation that the murderer doesnโt appreciate her snooping around. And if she doesnโt stop, sheโll be next in The Hostess with the Ghostess, the witty and delightful follow-up to national bestselling author E. J. Coppermanโs Spouse on Haunted Hill.
