About this ebook
Melanie and her grandma’s Oregon B&B is benevolently haunted by a laughing ghost in this paranormal cozy mystery written with “Murder She Wrote type of perfection” (Suspense Magazine).
While preparing for the grand opening, Melanie and Liza get an unexpected first guest—murder!
Melanie West is getting her life back on track after a messy divorce when her grandmother, Liza Harris, asks her to open a B&B with her. Together, Liza and Melanie purchase a purportedly haunted mansion on the Oregon coast and jump right into clearing out the cobwebs. But while attempting to remove wallpaper in an upstairs bedroom, the new B&B owners stumble upon a very real skeleton in their closet.
The police suspect the skeleton is that of the wife of the previous owner of the B&B, but no one in town seems to want to say much about her. As the inn owners try to juggle renovations with their own amateur investigations, their grand opening looms closer and closer—and a friendly ghost in their walls starts playing tricks. But it all comes crashing to a halt when a new body is found stabbed to death on the beach below the inn—the victim chillingly close in resemblance to Melanie herself.
It seems someone doesn't appreciate newcomers prying into the small town’s past, and now it's up to Melanie and Liza to get to the bottom of these murders to save their business . . . and their lives.

Yet again, Karen writes another wonderful book! It's full of mystery, suspense, and a hint of romance. Karen hit it out of the park. Great stand alone book. Highly recommend reading it.

This book is not a Christian book, it is not written by Karen Kingsbury. It is by Kate Kingsbury. I bought it thinking it was a christain book, and was very disappointed.
