Jordan Marsh left L.A. for the quaint Pacific Northwest town of Port Chatham in pursuit of some much-needed R & R. As the prime suspect in her cheating husband's murder, she had been hoping to immerse herself in the restoration of the charming Victorian she'd just bought--and put all talk of homicide investigations behind her. But as she soon discovers, the coldest of cases cry out to be solved, too. For this old house comes fully furnished--with two garrulous ghosts who have a century-old murder of their own they'd like her to look into. Now, if Jordan can keep the L.A. police at bay, and sort through a suspect list of shady characters circa 1890, she might just clear a wrongly accused man's name--and her own.… (more)

A fun read by an author who knows how to mix mystery, ghosts, history and most importantly, can infuse her characters with life, even the dead ones. I really enjoyed this book. ( )

Even ghost need to have help to solve murders , especially their own. Hattie and Charlotte need to find justice for Charlotte even if she was murdered over one hundred years ago. I had greater hopes for this book. I can't say I didn't like it but there were things about Jordan that I just didn't like. She came across as naive and sometimes a bit ditsy. Supporting characters such as Jace and Darcy, the Chief of Police were very believable. I gave it 3 stars because it was better than 2 stars would indicate. ( )

There were two different mysteries (present and past) that were being solved. Although both were interesting the older mystery didn't hold my attention through all of the background information. I enjoyed the present day people (not much too that mystery) and would have liked to know more about them. Since this was the first book in the series I can only hope those characters get more time in the spotlight. ( )

I don't know if I'll read anything else by this author. ( )

Okay. Light reading, Some Port Townsend WA history. But, not great literature. ( )
