The latest in the series has ghosts almost as annoying as Kelly and June.

Bobbi Holmes never fails to captivate!!
Another satisfying visit to Fredricksport and another fantastic tale! I hope this series continues for many many more books! I feel like I know these characters personally, and want more time with them! I don’t know how Anna comes up with her story lines, but her attention to details in the story, including wrapping up at the end is genius. I can’t help but think of her writing each story and chuckling at the bizarre twists and situations she can write into each one due to the supernatural world she has created! Sheer entertainment! While there are usually murders in her stories, it’s not creepy or scary.. nothing to make you uneasy… and the ghosts aren’t scary, although some are malevolent… but those are satisfyingly dealt with. Plenty of twists in the plot to keep you reading to find out what happens next! I appreciate that there’s no sex scenes or foul language to soil her stories… she doesn’t need to use those methods to attract readers… her imaginative stories alone do that ! I’m thankful she is such a prolific writer that we don’t have to wait too long between books!!!

Another fun addition to the series!
I’ve been waiting for this book for months and I am very pleased that the wait was worth it. It wasn’t as action packed as some of the other books, but the story seemed to just speed along. I was so happy to see all our characters again, except I wish we had more of some of them. And THAT ENDING! I can’t believe it! This is going to shake things up in some interesting (and hopefully fun) ways!

Not her best
I've read books 1-34 and loved them. This one was a disappointment. I was actually bored reading it. There was too much unnecessary detail and not enough story. The personalities of the characters was missing in this one.

The usual set of annoying characters (Kelly, June) were largely replaced by new annoying ghosts. I’m glad I’ve finally finished my dogged slog through these. Not sure I could take another wikipedia entry on breastfeeding.

I love this series so much. Brian has grown on me in this series. I can’t stand Kelly though why does she need to insert herself in everyone’s business.
July 28, 2025
I wouldn’t be mad if June and Kelly both disappeared.

Two new spirits have arrived and seeking mediums for help. One is a dad of twins and responsible for his own bad deeds, but, needs help to stop his twins from following his path, The second spirit has secrets, but, needs the mediums to stop his brother from marrying his widow, only to murder her for inherited money. The money was questionably inherited and a lost contended attempt by one cousin brings up questions. Who broke into the sold home of the aunt and stole papers? Do they reveal the true one to inherit the money? Will they stop the evil brother and his intentions of murder? Will our mediums save the twins and change their path in life? Things on beach st get interesting with the addition to a new baby girl, Ann to Lilly and Ian and Ian's mom seeing Conner react to the spirits he knows. Such an enjoyable and heart warming journey.

The fact that everyone is so careless drives me nuts. All the using “powers” for basic tasks is annoying. Leaving curtains open and flying people around rooms. Leaving ghosts with multiple small children. It’s just so dumb.

There's no way that any book in this series could deserve less than 5 stars. The books are so much fun to read, and they are so well written with never a detail lost. Sometimes I just have to laugh aloud when a non-knowing person, who is not a medium wanders by, and sees a child floating in air, etc (being carried by a ghost, of course).
This book perhaps had a less complicated plot than some of the others, but nevertheless there was plenty of activity going on, both with the mediums and the ghosts. In this case, there were two new ghosts who saw the error of their ways during their lives and were afraid to move on and face any punishment. One of the ghosts was known to the reader from a previous book, and the other one was new- with his own agenda.
Add in the confusion at Marlow House with infant twins, neighbors Lily and Ian living there with their toddler while their house was being remodeled before Lily has a new baby- and the baby being born 3 weeks early- and you have a lot of activity.
I wish these books could be written quicker!!!

Despite how disliked he was when he was alive, it was unexpected when Clay Bowman starts appearing to Heather Donovan asking for her help. I mean, when he was alive, he tried to kill her. Why would she help him now. But the help is NOT for him. He realizes now, after he's died, that his twin sons need some help, or their lives will end in misery. At the same time, Lily and Ian are having a problem with a recently deceased insurance salesman, Wesley Sadler. He is begging for someone to intervene on his widow's behalf. She has started dating someone that Wesley know wants to kill her for the money she inherited from his life insurance policy. However, the mediums think that Wesley is holding something back! Silly man - the Universe knows ALL!!!!

I LOVED it!
We had several different ghost issues going on in The Ghost Who Sought Redemption and they were all intriguing and not all predictable! A new baby didn't slow the Mediums down. I had wondered about that, a toddler, months old twins and a baby born in this book and the ghosts, both familiar and new keep coming! And we have a hint of 2 new additions to the gang! I have pre-ordered the next book, I think it's Wednesday's Child and it can't come out soon enough!

Everything happens for a purpose
Danielle and Walt are settling down to parenthood, but nothing stays quiet for long.
The ghost of Clay Boardment shows up for help with his twins.
Plus, there seems to be another ghost hanging around Connor. Who is he, and what does he want?
These are just the start of the problem. The Beach Drive mediums have their hands full.
Another excellent read for all lovers of the supernatural world.

Two
When have we had two ghosts? Um I'm sure we had but not as pushy as these two were. I understand Clays motives, your children should be looked after and we all want our kids to be better than you. And Wesley well I thought he was a caring husband until the truth came out, wow, just wow! The mystery lady looking for Chris with a child I wonder if she is seeing dollar signs hmm. On to the next adventure!💙💚😉

Decent enough story to listen to but the series has gone on soooo long that it is ridiculous how many murders there are in this small coastal town. Seemingly normal people in the town become thieves and murderers. This one has a husband and wife who plot to murder each other with one successful then the survivor murders the spouse's sibling and then dies too; serious eye rolling involved. Maybe it's past time to let the series end.

Great book
I love this series. I was worried when Danielle had the babies that the series would end. So happy that wasn't the case. There is always something new and interesting going on. The only irritating character is Kelly. Since she can't move away give her a job she needs to be at all day.

Each & every addition to the series is fantastic!!
This is a phenomenal series! I've lived it from the beginning when Danielle moved in Marlow House and saw Walt. Each book has a fascinating storyline and the human characters and animal characters are enjoyable. This is a truly wonderful series!!!!

Awesome read.
I love the series. I truly hope it becomes available on audible . I really love the authors and characters, especially Danielle and Walt. I love the whole Beach drive group. Bian Henderson is an excellent addition.I believe Melanie will make an excellent addition Lilly and Ian.

it’s time to let Kelly know
Hi I think it’s time to let the in-laws in on it too it’s getting redundant
It would be cool also to have Walt be more active with Chris and his philanthropic deeds
🤷♂️ the wait between books is pretty long:) probably since I read the first 30 books at about one a day

Never disappointed
This is a great series. The characters are fun, you really connect with them, you even begun to worry about them and what might happen to anyone of them, and the stories are interesting they keep your attention the whole way. I've read every book and they never disappoint me, I just wish they came out sooner!!! I'm glad I found this series!!!

I highly enjoyed this 35th book in this series. It was good to see a bad man see the light after death and seek redemption. It was also good to see bad people get their comeuppance. I loved the storyline and the many surprises. I can't wait for the next book in the series. I highly recommend this book and series.

As ever a brilliant story
Well, diving from babies to ghosts to children acting up as one could see ghosts whilst the other couldn't, and more murders and more ghosts it was getting pretty crowded in their town. Mayhem was the order of the day, it was delightful, funny, spooky and a brilliant book. I couldn't go to bed until I had read it all.

A Lot Happening
Imagine three babies, a toddler, a overbearing mother/mother-in-law, and two ghosts with major problems haunting the mediums. The book was like a pingpong table with mediums, spirits, babies, keeping up with who did and didn’t know about ghosts, and vile people. It was an enjoyable read. My only complaint…calling a newborn my first and middle name…Emily Ann.

Love this series!!
Every one of these books are such fun reads! This one focuses on redemption and karma. Love the characters and Walt and Danielle’s continuing story and their expanded family and friends. Some much love, comedy and connection!

Excellent books!!! My favorite series. At the end of this story there’s a cliffhanger. Love the writing… I always feel stress free reading these. knowing the culprits will be caught. Now I just need to wait until next spring…😫😫😫 Happy Reading :)

As always first rate.
This was fast paced. I hadn't read for awhile, life interrupt's, but things fell into place quickly. This was a very interesting book. Made me think about how life changes so quickly.

The Ghost Who Sought Redemption is just as captivating as the previous books in the series. Danielle and crew are responsible for more than one ghost in this book and the means for helping them are not clear cut. Seeing little Evan playing a larger role in the series was a great addition.

Such a fun series! Bobbi Holmes keeps it clean, and the storyline keeps the reader wanting more. I can't believe I'm 35 books in and have yet to grow tired of them. She really has a way to keep the story interesting and keep the readers engaged with Danielle and others on Beach Drive.

This one was so detailed!
I'm amazed at how detailed this one was at the end. I do love stories that answer all the questions and wrap things up nicely, but also believably. Holmes executed this perfectly in this one and wrote an engaging story that made me want more!
