Beyond a Reasonable Haunt
(2026)(The seventh book in the Grumpy Ghost series)
A novel by Maggie March
Some trials are about justice. This one might just raise the dead.
Anna McGuffin has faced down murderers, outwitted vengeful spirits, and survived small-town gossip—but nothing has prepared her for this: admitting that her feelings for a certain Victorian ghost have become impossible to ignore. Richard Lockwood is infuriating, overprotective, and devastatingly handsome for someone who's been dead since 1895. But how do you build a future with a man who doesn't have one?
Before Anna can untangle her heart, Lockwood Cove is thrust into the national spotlight. Greg Anderson, disgraced director of the hit TV show Ghost Trackers, is standing trial for murder—and his defense is unprecedented: supernatural forces made him do it. It would be laughable if the star expert witness weren't Dr. Thomas Braxton, a man whose obsession with Victorian serial killer Alistair Hawthorne borders on worship.
Worse still, the defense's key evidence is a gold Victorian locket—the very one Anna and Richard know contains Hawthorne's trapped spirit. One wrong move in that courtroom and the most dangerous ghost Lockwood Cove has ever known could be set free. Richard has kept Anna safe from Hawthorne before, but this time the threat isn't lurking in a shadowy cemetery—it's sitting in an evidence bag, waiting for its moment.
