Read A Review:

Pepper Martin has just finished solving Gus’ murder and is happy she won’t be seeing ghosts any more, until Didi Bowman shows up who’s been dead for fifty years. She claims she’s the real author of the Civil War novel “So Far The Dawn” by Merilee Bowman, her sister. Merilee is coming to town for the opening of the new museum related to the book and Pepper’s boss Ella at the cemetery turns out to be a huge fan of her book.

Pepper decides to look into Didi’s claims, but is often unsure of whether she believes Didi. She ends up working for Merilee which is no picnic. When there’s an attempt at Pepper’s life, she decides there must be something to this and starts digging deeper. She knows this is probably putting her in more danger. Detective Quinn Harrison was watching her back, wasn’t he? Could she figure out who the real author of the novel is without ending up in the cemetery permanently?

I love this fun cozy series. Pepper is such a great character. She’s funny but definitely not stupid. There aren’t many ghost mysteries I like, but I love this series. I like how Pepper often says things in public to a ghost and has to quick cover up the fact that she was talking to a ghost. I like the sexual tension between Pepper and Quinn. The mystique of Dan adds to the series as well.

I can’t wait for the next one. I highly recommend this book and series.
