 Olivermagnus (lynda11282) | 4948 comments Cookie Chanel owns a popular vintage clothing store in Sugar Creek, Georgia. While attending an estate sale for the late Charlotte Meadows, the sudden appearance of Charlotte gives her a huge surprise. Apparently the only person who can see her is Cookie so she wants her help to discover who strangled her to death.

Charlotte is one of the funniest ghost characters in any book I've ever read. And a very snappy dresser. The absolute best part of any cozy mystery is when an interesting pet makes an appearance. A beautiful cat named Wind Song has psychic abilities and can even communicate using a ouija board. I laughed when her first communication was "Stop buying cheap cat food".

Each chapter begins with either one of Cookie’s Savvy Vintage Fashion Shopping Tips or her friend Heather’s Heartfelt Tips for Getting Rid of an Unwanted Ghost.

This story had all the traditional elements of a cozy mystery with the hook being vintage clothes. I love fashion so I didn't feel like the descriptions of various outfits were overwhelming. Naturally, there's going to be a handsome detective who has to warn Cookie off from her own investigation.

I thought it was a fast, light and humorous paranormal cozy mystery that will definitely appeal to more than just a fashion maven. I hope the next book in the series features more of the psychic cat.
