As a cozy mystery lover I must say I have really enjoyed reading GHOST IN THE GUACAMOLE by Sue Ann Jaffarian. With such witty characters, especially Granny, I could not help but feel delighted while reading this lively novel. Jaffarian's descriptions of the characters and their daily activities helped you to imagine them in a way that made you feel they are real. Yes, even Granny, who is supposed to be a ghost. This is the second in the Ghost of Granny Apples Mysteries and is easy to follow without reading the first one.
Medium Emma Whitecastle is on the case with two sisters, Lucinda and Ricarda Ricardo (also known as Lucy and Rikki), who are in disagreement about the family business. After their father dies, Lucy wants to sell the restaurant to a competitor but Rikki wants to keep it going as she felt that her father would want that. To prove that, she hires Emma to contact her father, Felix for advice on how to handle her sister. Emma finds out that Felix wants his daughter to sell in fear that she might die as he did, leaving Emma to believe that his death was not an accident after all. Will Emma, along with the assists of Granny, be able to get to the bottom of things before it is too late?
You will laugh as you read a GHOST IN THE GUACAMOLE with Granny's canny sense of humor. Sue Ann Jaffarian's novel will be pleasing to all who loves a good cozy mystery.
