Oh, Scarlett! Why do you not listen to Sir Bogart! He warned you in the first book; he warned you in the second book. Now he warned you again. Girl, you need to heed his warnings!

Sydney Coleman left her big city life behind and now owns Moonlight Manor. She tried to turn her manor into a B&B, but her ghostly roomies derailed that plan. Then, with the assistance of the ghosts she set up ghost tours of the manor. But a dead body the morning after the debut of tours axed that plan. Sydney desperately needs money to pay the bills. Her latest idea is to auction off some the antiques scattered throughout the manor.

As her best friend Frannie and the ghosts help her compile an inventory of items for the auction, they discover a secret room. Behind a hidden panel, Sydney comes across a gem-laden dagger. Bogey warns Sydney that the dagger is cursed, but Sydney does not heed his advice.

Then the arrival of unexpected – and unwelcome – bidders lead to Sydney’s once again finding herself with a dead body and having to prove her innocence.

This is a lighthearted, fun series with a cast made up of the ideal best friend, friendly neighbors, a cook and butler who are ghosts, an aloof ghost feline, and Sydney. I am totally loving the ghosts.

I highly recommend this delightful series. This entire series of three books can easily be read over a relaxing weekend.

I received an advance copy of this book. All opinions expressed here are my own. ( )
