There's a paperback series that combines two of my interests: Mysteries and the Paranormal. It's written by Alice Kimberely. I just finished reading " The Ghost and the Dead Man's Library" and went on line and ordered the others in the series.
Penelope McClure helps solve mysteries with the assistance of the ghost of P.I. named Jack, that only she can hear in her head (as long as she keeps his buffalo nickel in her pocket).It's a great story, with twists and turns, and will keep you guessing who the murderer is. The characters are great, and all have distinct personalities.
I highly recommend this book!
(Of course, being a medium, I can hear ghosts and spirits, too - so I could really relate to the characters.) - Rob
