The Lady on Esplanade

De: Karen White

Narrado por: Sophie Amoss

People and secrets from the past threaten to disrupt Nola Trenholm’s new life in New Orleans in the third novel of the Royal Street series by New York Times bestselling author Karen White.

Nola is ready to focus on starting over in the Big Easy. She wants to get back to work on the renovations of her Creole cottage, and she is eager to launch a new murder-house-flipping business with contractor, closet psychic, and part-time nemesis Beau Ryan. After a near-death ghostly encounter and the return of Beau’s missing sister, they are confident that the ghost of his mother can finally rest.

Nola believes the shotgun house on famed Esplanade Avenue is a prime fixer-upper for her first project. It may have been the site of a woman’s murder and the disappearance of an entire family, but the house will be perfect for new-to-town Cooper Ravenel—who happens to have caused Nola’s first heartbreak.

That’s the least of Nola’s worries, though. In addition to the elusive spirit of an angry young woman who accompanied Cooper to New Orleans, the house on Esplanade has its own ghosts, including one that is becoming increasingly dangerous as he tries to hide his dark secrets. And the wet footprints from the spirit of Beau’s mother have returned to let them know there is still unfinished business before she can rest. Spectral danger is headed toward them, and it’s up to Nola to convince Beau to help before it’s too late. . . .

Friends?

Loved this book, The characters were all great. The story was so great, Nola’s sister added to the story. Also Cooper and Nea sister.

cozy paranormal mystery

This is a cozy paranormal mystery set in New Orleans. There are ghosts, people with psychic abilities, and a love triangle (kind of). A spooky Madame Alexander doll also reappears throughout the story.

This was my first book by Karen White, and I enjoyed her writing. It certainly won’t be my last one. The narrator of the audiobook did a great job as well. I liked reading and listening to the story equally.

Great storytelling and narrator

This has been a great series of books. It holds your interest and has lots of surprises and the characters are very warm and inviting. I love this narrator as well!

Scary

Scary as always with the suspense building from the first chapter to the last. And there are still mysteries to solve in the next book.

Another great story!

As usual, Karen White provides another mysterious story in the Nola Trenam series. Consistent fabulous narration. Reveals some answers to 'what happened' in previous books. Absolutely worth reading!
