Apple cider, bonfires, football, and—ghosts.

It’s homecoming weekend in Sugarland, Tennessee and ghost hunter Verity Long is tickled to see so many souls—living and dead—back in town to celebrate. But not all reunions are happy ones, and when Verity stumbles upon a dead body by the football field, it appears someone has already evened the score.



Review:
Been holding onto this lil nugget until Fall time! It's September...it works ;)

We continue our journey with Verity Long. It's homecoming weekend and the whole town is in celebration mode! They are even unburying a time capsule. It's a little early, but they need to build stuff. When it is opened they uncover a body of a young woman from the 1980s everyone thought ran off with a mystery man. It will be up to Verity to solve the murder. 

All the Fall feels. The weather is going back and forth here, but in my heart it is Fall. This was the perfect book to kick off Fall reads. 

Lots of drama and fun and comedy. Lots of red herrings in this one. I really had no idea. There are a few people who for sure would have good motive for murder. I wasn't sure and then the real murderer shocked me. THAT WAS A TWIST!!!!

It was certainly a twist-y twist, but it made sense thinking back on it. Nice job. 

I'm so glad we got a break from the MIL drama. She needs to stay away for a while. But we did get to meet Verity's mom more and learn more about that. It was nice to see them start working on their own issues. 

There is a the blossoming of a romance with two side characters I did NOT see that coming. I know Verity isn't amused, but....I'm excited for them. I'm curious to see where it goes. 

All-in-all, this was really, really good. I enjoyed it so much. Loved it really. I could see myself relistening to this one. It was perfect to kick off Fall!!

5 stars from me. 


ONE WORD SUMMARY: Great
