About this product

Product Information

With the arrival of six senior reading group members at the Merry Ghost Inn, the long-awaited Grand Opening week has finally begun for Melanie West and her grandmother, Liza. All is well with the Oregon coast-side B&B until Melanie's dog, Max, finds the dead body of one of their guests. Everyone at the inn immediately falls under suspicion, including the innkeepers themselves. Melanie and Liza are not sure who they can trust, and the idea of cohabitating with a murderer is enough to send chills down anyone's spine. To make matters worse, the curmudgeonly town detective wants them to steer clear of the investigation, but doesn't seem too inspired to solve the case in a timely fashion himself. To clear their own names and to avoid the blight on the inn's reputation that yet another dead body will bring, Melanie and Liza dive headlong into the murder investigation. With a little help from their chuckling ghost, Melanie and Liza dodge the detective, tip-toe aroun

  • 2nd chance

    I actually wasn't impressed with the 1st book in this series. I found it to be slow but I decided to give it another chance as i have sometimes found that the story line often really comes together in the second of a series. I was pleasantly surprised because it was thoroughly enjoyable. With each book there is a new cast of characters at the inn but not so many that it becomes exhausting keeping track of who's who. Mystery, cozy and supernatural with a resident ghost making this an entertaining read!!!

  • Terrific condition.

    This series is kinda like the Mrs.Morris series of books concerning a ghost in an inn, but in this series the ghost is never seen and can't be conversed with.So it lacks that. This book is hardback, has a dust jacket, and looks new.
