When a book combines a murder mystery and a woman who has the ability to see and communicate with ghosts to help her solve the crime, I have high hopes for liking it, and I wasn't disappointed when I read "Chance of a Ghost" by E.J. Copperman. What a FUN read! Great characters and an interesting mystery that will keep you reading to the last chapter. It's light-hearted and the characters are realistic (well, some of them if you don't believe in ghosts - which I assure you are real). I Recommend this for anyone interested in ghosts and mysteries! Can't wait to get another book in this series! - Rob
BOOK SUMMARY: Even with a blizzard bearing down on New Jersey, Alison can count on at least two guests—Paul and Maxie, the stubborn ghosts who share her shore town inn. Then there’s her widowed mother, who hasn’t just been seeing ghosts, she’s been secretly dating one: Alison’s father. But when he stands her up three times in a row, something’s wrong. Is he a lost soul…or a missing apparition?
Their only lead is an overdramatic spirit—stage name Lawrence Laurentz—who doesn’t take direction well and won’t talk until they find his killer. Alison will reluctantly play the part of PI, but when the clues take a sinister turn, the writing is on the wall: If Alison can’t keep a level head, this will be her father’s final act—and maybe her own.
