Dark deeds. Missing gold. A ghost with twenty-five million secrets!

Lorna Shadow, Helen, and Flipper arrive at their new jobs to find a family in mourning and a ghost with an attitude. Will there ever be a job she gets that doesn’t involve a ghost?

When Lorna discovers the family is full of 'reformed' criminals, she must watch her step as she figures out who killed Lonnie Cornell and where he hid the stolen gold. With a new house to pay for, Lorna can't afford to lose this job, but will the stubborn ghost, eerie feelings she keeps experiencing, and menacing suspects be too much to handle?

She needs to be careful with her sleuthing or she’ll wind up on the hit list of some seriously scary people.

Never one to run from a challenge, Lorna questions mobsters, wives with secrets, and family members who are on the wrong side of shady to get to the truth. It’ll take more than tea and cake to get Lorna through this twisty mystery.

Enjoy this fun-filled cozy ghost mystery. Meet a feisty grandma and her fearless dog, Reggie, puzzle through the clues, discover the murderer, and help a ghost who won’t rest until his killer is found.

I really enjoyed this book and am excited to read others by this author.

It's not every day you get up and go to work for gangsters but that's what, Lorna & Helen did and lived to talk about it. I loved the way Lorna handle the "bad" guys, she's a tough cookie! I was glad when Lonnie finally found out who killed him and could move on. As for you K.E. O'CONNOR = good work - keep it up.

Mobsters, ghosts, and granny... O' My! Lorna and friends have a comical mess on their hands this time. This book has lots of twists that keep the pace moving. This is a good fun read. I received an ARC and this is my honest opinion.

This has been my favorite in the series so far. I really loved the organized crime angle. It was new compared to the previous books.
