Publisher's summary

Solving a murder way too close to home, Alison Kerby can't catch a break.

If Alison Kerby really wanted peace and quiet, she never should have opened the Haunted Guesthouse. The Jersey Shore lodge's latest polter-guest is Richard Harrison, the recently murdered brother of long-time resident ghost PI Paul Harrison.

Alas, a beyond-the-grave brotherly reunion is nowhere in the foreseeable future - phantasmal Paul left the guesthouse months ago for parts unknown, and for all her ghost-whispering prowess, Alison has no idea how to find him. And she's going to need Paul, because Richard's isn't the only murder still unsolved.

Richard, a lawyer in life, tells Alison that he had been working the case of a woman accused of murdering her stepfather. When Richard got too close to the truth, he was permanently silenced. Now, as Alison searches for Paul, she gets a creeping sensation that the murderer doesn't appreciate her snooping around. If she doesn't succeed in her hunt, she has the feeling that she'll be the next to haunt the house.

Love this series

I really loved this series at first because the author didn't repeat every single book the first few chapters of the book however the latest few I've listened to / read the author recapped most of the other books then recapped the book the story your actually reading or listening to which isn't as awesome. I really like the characters and the story lines, except the grown woman being super weird to maxis character and pretty immature in how they interact. I'd also really love her to stop using the "like cleopatra on her barge" or every variant of that she's used in every single book at least once if not multiple times. Also Allison being allergic to a ghost dog is semi tedious and pretty silly, I wish the author had let the daughter have a ghost dog as a pet with out the silliness of Allison being allergic. Over all great fun reads but the whole reason I loved the series was the author in the first few books no wasting space repeating or summarizing every previous book. So if you skip a ton of pages of the recapping and get to the meat of the story's it's pretty fun.

Paranormal Mystery

I love this series! They're fun, with ghosts & mystery to solve, that doesn't always have the obvious culprit. There's a little snark, fun & a good outcome.

Ok

Another one in the series. If you’ve read the earlier ones you know what to expect. This one has a few sections I lost interest in. But overall a good listen.

Delusional Dangerous Ghost

Great storyline, filled with danger, drama and romance. Excellent narration by Amanda Ronconi. I reccomend this book and series. Great read!

Narration and story are consistent

Fun story. Narrator does a nice job transitioning from voices, so characters feel distinct. I have really enjoyed the series story line and the freshness of the plots.

I am obsessed with this series!

Love this author and series

I have now read all of the series thst have been made. I love each and everyone of them and I hope to see more in the future. Love the teamwork.

😊

Smiling throughout.
I'd stopped reading this series that I have found quite hit and miss but, for lack of anything else promising, I decided to read a few more. This 1 I particularly enjoyed - much fun (I just wish she'd go back to the writer series where the h is a cosy mystery writer - was really enjoying that 1)

A fun series

Really enjoy Amanda Ronconi’s performance. I feel like I would like to stay in the guest house.
