De: Cleo Coyle

Narrado por: Caroline Shaffer, Traber Burns

Bookshop owner Penelope Thornton-McClure and her ghostly companion must solve the case of a literary killer in this Haunted Bookshop mystery from Cleo Coyle, writing as Alice Kimberly.

Pen has just received an extremely rare collection of Edgar Allan Poe's complete works. Rumor has it a secret code, trapped within the books' leather-bound pages leads, to buried treasure. Well, it looks like they got the buried part right - because, as Pen sells off the valuable volumes, everyone who buys...dies.

Once these books go missing from their owners' cold hands, Pen will need resident ghost and hard-boiled P.I. Jack Shepard to help crack the case. The police are skeptical that the deaths involved foul play - so it's up to them to unravel these shocking endings....

Clever premise, however..

the lead female character comes off as a dim wit do to poorly written dialogue. i think a good editor could have caught this and helped this book reach escape velocity. .

ANOTHER GOOD ONE!

I failed to mention in my other reviews the narration. Caroline and Traber did an awesome job with the different voices with all the books. I'm not one for spoilers, but if you haven't listened to these books in order, you should. They have kept me entertained, laughing out loud and on the edge of my seat.

The ghost and the dead man's library

I had a great time reading this book! there was mystery after mystery for the characters to solve.

Another great example of a good mystery.

The characters in these books are really something special. Cleo Coyle does a really great job of developing characters and writing mysteries. I enjoy the suspense and humor in these books. The narration by Caroline Shaffer and Traber Burns is done really well. I can't imagine anyone else doing it.

Love Poe

A lot of interesting information on Poe. This made for a very interesting murder mystery. Lots of twist and turns. Truly enjoy the characters.

Don't miss this one.

Loved the book and it keeps you guessing until the very end to who is guilty!

Great writer

Just finished my third book by Ms Coyle. On to my fourth. Great fun reads.

FIRST CLASS! GREAT FUN!

Wonderfully fun stories and the narration is perfect. I couldn't ask for more. Love it

Watch Pen become more assertive!

Continuing the saga of Pen and her ghost, Jack. Jack is a great character in his own right and he’s often Pen’s courage. Pen dreams Jack’s life. These mysteries are cozy; they I continue to hold the reader’s interest and come to a solved end. I’m enjoying them and will now go to book 4.

Ghost and Detective work

A really interesting book with lots of excitement throughout the entire book. It was very interesting to learn about Poe’s books and life.
