Book Synopsis

Graciela Harper thought that getting rid of Anne Bonny’s ghost would be the first step toward putting all of the problems of her past behind her. Maybe things would work out with Beauregard Drayton, Heron Creek’s charming mayor. Maybe she and her cousin Amelia, and their childhood friends Melanie and Will, could find a way back to the comfortable friendship that defined their lives.<br>
<br>
But when the ghost of Glinda Davis, the town’s longtime, quirky hairdresser, puts a stop to Gracie and Beau’s relationship consummation, Graciela knows her life has changed for good. The insistent ghost drags Graciela into a world she’s only seen on reality television shows—one filled with moonshiners and backwoods politics that are solved by burying bodies, not friendly conversations.<br>
<br>
Graciela needs to figure out exactly what Glinda’s spirit requires so she’ll get the heck out of dodge, but the further she digs into the woman’s past, the more dangers seep into the present. As Graciela gets closer to the answers she seeks, she starts to wonder if she’s going to solve a murder in the process—or die trying.

    Great addition to the series.The author has a way of telling a story that is intriguing, captivating and humorous at times. I'm not going to summarize the book for you as you can read that above. But I will tell you that it is a MUST read. But start with book one of the series. I'm anxious to see how the relationships between all the characters grow and develop.

    I liked this one too, except for one thing. It really ticks me off when an author screws up the names of their characters from one book to the next. Amelia Middleton was changed to Amelia Burleigh.....Burleigh being Anne's 2nd husband. It seems to me that an author, proof reader or editor should catch things like that. Maybe, it just goes to show how real these characters become to me. And that is what I do like about these books.

    The second installment to this series was a great follow up. If you like Denise Grover Swank's Rose Gardner Mysteries this is a great read as well. Ready to find out what happens in the third installment. The cliffhanger is killing me!
  • Can't wait for the next!

    I started reading this series while I was waiting for another book to come out, and I couldn't put it down. I had forgotten I preordered this book after reading the first and was pleasantly surprised to find it on my iphone. Make sure you have plenty of time to read because once you start, you won't be able to start. The ending will leave you begging for more!

    Gracie Anne, as Beau calls her, finds herself in yet another ghost caper as Glinda lurks nearby wanting Gracie to find answers. The mystery ghost in mixed garb remains a part of Gracie's long list of unanswered questions. Relationships are still a struggle for Gracie as she muddles through murky clues and the life Heron Creek has thrust upon her, but she's trying to remember how to let others in. She is forced to accept that unlikely alliances can sometimes save the day, things aren't always as they appear, and everyone has skeletons in their closet. I'm "Not Quite Patient" for the next in this series to come along because I'm dying to know where Gracie's penchant for trouble will lead her next. Beau, mixed garb ghost, Mrs. LaBadie … so many stories are waiting to unfold! It's unlikely Gracie's life will be dull. As Millie told her, "So you're being haunted. Deal with it." The author created yet another set of characters that make you want to know them personally. Her gift for story telling crosses genres and ages. I can't wait to see where she takes Gracie and the gang.
