Enjoy this humorous, small-town, psychic, cozy mystery by best-selling and award-winning Lucinda Race.

When a reluctant ghost whisperer inherits a dress shop, murder and mayhem follow.

Designer -- reluctant psychic and amateur sleuth -- Claudia Grant just wanted a fresh start.
When she inherits her late Uncle Herman's charming dress shop in Drakes Bay, she expects sewing machines... not a resident ghost. But Uncle Herman's spirit is very much alive (well, dead) and desperate for Claudia to uncover the truth behind his untimely demise.

On Claudia's very first morning on the job, she befriends Beth, the next-door knitting shop owner -- and discovers she's the beneficiary of her late uncle's estate. Then a mysterious man phones, claiming Herman promised him the shop. Before Claudia can stitch up the loose ends, she finds herself standing over the man's body -- with a gun in her hand, and the local police breathing down her neck.

Now the only person who can prove Claudia's innocence is... a ghost.

With help from her spectral uncle, an adorably aloof dress shop cat, and a handsome -- and highly skeptical -- town cop, Claudia must unravel a tangle of clues and small-town scandals before the real murderer claims another victim... or before Claudia ends up in cuffs or as a ghost permanently.
