Publisher's summary

As Halloween approaches South Cove, California, four couples get into the spirit of the holiday by conjuring up spirits....

The house has sat empty for 15 years, taking up prime real estate along the picturesque coastline. Built by one of the founders of South Cove, its last known owner, Maryanne Demerit, vanished without a trace. Now her home will be demolished for a condo development, but until then, it's the perfect spot for a Halloween haunted house.

Jill Gardner, owner of Coffee, Books, and More, her boyfriend, and three other couples are spending the weekend in the Demerit home. But what begins as an all-in-good-fun fright fest turns into a mystery begging to be solved as Jill is contacted by the ghost of Maryanne....

Fun Mystery with a twist.

Your everyday double date turns into a mystery. Fabulous progression of the characters in the series of books. It's cute, funny, and a good read on Halloween.

Meh

Predictable and characters that were pretty interchangeable. Too simple with neither interesting plot, mystery or people. Not likely to try this author again.

Characters were different

I found the characterization to be off with Greg coming across as a bit of a bully and a tyrant. Can anyone tell me if this is a permanent change? if so I might have to consider not continuing the series.

A-Ghostly Encounter

Jill and Greg are double dating in a haunted jointed house and end up solving a decades old mystery. This was a fun, quick novella in the series.
