It is a truth universally acknowledged that a grumpy Victorian ghost in possession of a haunted mansion only wants to be left alone.
For Richard Lockwood, former Scotland Yard detective, that changed the moment Anna McGuffin walked through his door. Months of solving crimes together have turned reluctant roommates into something more. Witty banter. Lingering looks. Undeniable chemistry. And one very inconvenient obstacle—he's dead, she's not.
Anna and Richard's fledgling romance is forced to take a backseat when Professor Ridley, the manor's former tenant, appears as a ghost with unfinished business. Twenty years of stubborn pride kept him from apologizing to Eleanor Bennett, the flower shop owner he loved and lost. Now he needs Anna to find his hidden will before his scheming nephew takes everything and robs Eleanor of her inheritance.
It sounds straightforward—help a lovelorn ghost, find a missing will, thwart a greedy nephew. But someone wants that fortune badly enough to kill for it. As Anna, Richard, and Daisy close in on the truth, a killer closes in on them.
With danger mounting, Anna can't ignore the parallels to her own impossible love story. Watching Ridley wrestle with a lifetime of regret, she knows one thing for certain: she won't make the same mistake. Now she just has to find a way to make the impossible possible.
Pride and Poltergeists is a paranormal cozy mystery brimming with romance, supernatural shenanigans, and laugh-out-loud moments—where ghosts have attitude, a certain dachshund keeps digging up trouble, and some apologies are worth waiting a lifetime for.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
