Helpful Score: 2

I just finished this book in one day. It was fantastic and now I can't wait for the second one to come out in November. A storyline with romance, mystery, Charleston area history and the supernatural are all wrapped into this book. Could not put it down once I started it.



Synopsis

A brilliant, chilling series debut, featuring a Charleston real estate agent who loves old houses-and the secret histories inside them.

Practical Melanie Middleton hates to admit she can see ghosts. But she's going to have to accept it. An old man she recently met has died, leaving her his historic Tradd Street home, complete with housekeeper, dog-and a family of ghosts anxious to tell her their secrets.

Enter Jack Trenholm, a gorgeous writer obsessed with unsolved mysteries. He has reason to believe that diamonds from the Confederate Treasury are hidden in the house. So he turns the charm on with Melanie, only to discover he's the smitten one...

It turns out Jack's search has caught the attention of a malevolent ghost. Now, Jack and Melanie must unravel a mystery of passion, heartbreak-and even murder.
