About this ebook
No good deed goes unpunished.
San Francisco contractor Mel Turner is leading a volunteer home renovation project, and while she expects lots of questions from her inexperienced crew, she can’t help asking a few of her own—especially about the haunted house next door…the place local kids call the Murder House.
But when volunteers discover a body while cleaning out a shed, questions pile up faster than discarded lumber. Mel notices signs of ghostly activity next door and she wonders: Are the Murder House ghosts reaching out to her for help, or has the house claimed another victim?
Now, surprised to find herself as the SFPD’s unofficial “ghost consultant,” Mel must investigate murders both past and present before a spooky killer finishes another job.

ghosts, renovation, family-dynamics, friendship, relationship-issues, PTSD, general-contractor, murder, law-enforcement Ghosts and corpses seem to seek Mel out while on the job site. This time she is working with a community service agency and I learned a lot about this type of resource. The project is next to a house where most of a family was murdered twenty-five years ago. The surviving son is a Poet Laureate, nearly crippling PTSD from witnessing the massacre, and lives nearby. Good sleuthing by Mel who even agrees to being present at a seance requested by the poet after his sister is found murdered on the same property. Great read made even better by narrator Xe Sands!
