Fake Spiritualist Meets a Real Ghost… and One Very Annoyed Detective
—1926, Pasadena, California—
Daisy Gumm Majesty is no stranger to staging séances for Pasadena’s wealthiest (and most gullible) citizens, but even she’s surprised when an actual spirit makes an appearance—especially one demanding justice. Eddie Hastings, a lawyer in life and an inconvenient ghost in death, insists he was murdered, not a victim of suicide.
Daisy has enough on her plate—keeping up her spiritualist charade, managing Spike—her ever-curious dachshund, and fending off the sharp-eyed Detective Sam Rotondo, who has an annoying habit of catching her in the middle of trouble. The last thing she needs is a real ghost haunting her conscience.
Determined to unravel the mystery without landing herself in jail (again), Daisy embarks on a covert investigation—dodging skeptical cops, Pasadena’s high society, and a murderer who isn’t too keen on unfinished business.
Will Daisy uncover the truth before she joins Eddie on the other side?
Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead. Eventually, her muse won the battle, and she’s been crafting engaging historical cozy mysteries ever since. Now a proud resident of Roswell, New Mexico, Alice enjoys the lack of smog and crowds while spoiling her beloved herd of wild dachshunds. Visit her at www.aliceduncan.net.
