Books from the Backlog #94

 

Books from the Backlog is a fun way to feature some of those neglected books sitting on your bookshelf unread.  If you are anything like me, you might be surprised by some of the unread books hiding in your stacks. This meme is hosted by Carole's Random Life in Books!

 

From the New York Times bestselling author of Keeper of the Castle, San Francisco contractor and ghost whisperer Mel Turner must solve a murder mystery at a haunted mansion in the Pacific Heights...

San Francisco millionaire Andrew Stirling wants to sell his Victorian mansion, but ghostly music, the squeaking of a long-disappeared weathervane, and an angry ghost keep running off potential buyers. After a famous psychic is called in, she informs the Stirlings that their multi-million-dollar renovations to “update” the home have left its resident ghost extremely agitated. So contractor Mel Turner is engaged to track down and replace some of the original features of the house. 

But when the beautiful psychic is found stabbed, it appears someone had a very human motive for murder. Now Mel must use her ghost whispering gift to uncover the secrets of the haunted house on the hill, and her sleuthing skills to catch a killer.

 

 

I added Juliet Blackwell's Give Up the Ghost to my TBR pile in December of 2015 about when it came out! I still need to read the 4th book in the series and this is the 5th out of 8, so I'm halfway through! I found it better to buy the mass market books as they release as they become nearly impossible to find later on as I learned with another series and the kindle version of the book is way over budget too considering the year they released, so I'm better off tracking down a used copy of the physical book! But this was a fun series and I enjoyed the ghostly mystery and I loved that Juliet had her two series characters meetup at times too! It was just fun to see since they lived in the same city area! Definitely can't wait to get back to this series!
