Private investigator Emory Rome and his Mourning Dove partners accept an invitation to stay at Geisterhaus and unravel its secrets before more lives are lost.
My Review...
This is my 3rd Mourning Dove Mysteries book.
It's a sort of thrown together investigative team that seems
to work very well. This time they visit an estate to try to prove a ghost
killed someone. O was it a ghost? You can imagine how logical private
detectives look at such a thing.
I like all 3 members of the investigative team. Emory is my
favorite and I think this would be true of every reader. But...I enjoy Jeff and
Virginia. The author has crafted 3 very different personalities in his
characters. He's made them so well defined that I think you could know who was
speaking even if small parts of the dialog were removed from the book. Don't
worry, I didn't tear out any pages to prove my theory but what I did do, was
enjoy this immensely.
At twenty-three and with a notorious case under his belt, Emory Rome has already garnered fame as a talented special agent for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. His career is leapfrogging over his colleagues, but the jumping stops when he's assigned a case he fought to avoid - an eerie murder in the Smoky Mountain hometown he had abandoned. The mysterious death of a teen ice-skater once destined for the pros is soon followed by an apparent case of spontaneous human combustion. In a small town bursting with friends and foes, Rome's own secrets lie just beneath the surface. The rush to find the murderer before he strikes again pits him against artful private investigator Jeff Woodard. The PI is handsome, smart and seductive, and he just might be the killer Rome is seeking.
