Publisher's Summary

Left alone at Marlow House with Sadie and Max, Walt expects Danielle and Lily to return by the end of the week. When they don't, he begins to wonder what happened to them.  

The ghost of Marlow House doesn't scare six-year-old Evan MacDonald. When the child sneaks into the house in the middle of the night, seeking Walt's help, the resident spirit learns something has happened to Danielle and Lily.  

Can a ghost confined to Marlow House and a pint-sized medium bring the people they love home?

Narrator
Is fantastic! She can change voices for the different charaters easily. I love it.

Biased Review:
WAY too many characters! And the way the Point of View changes so often pulls me out of the story.

Love the series,But,,,

This series is really so enjoyable, but there are 3 things that are getting so irritating. First. how many times the constant question from one one or more of the primary characters of,"What do you mean?" That is so frustrating to hear repeatedly as if the characters are that unintelligent? Really? Then there's the overused phrase of, "I don understand. " Again it makes the characters sound less than smart about basic situations, than any very average person does indeed understand. I was actually glad about the setting of this book, because every previous book in the series has been filled with constant mentioning of Danielle's "Red Ford Flex!!!" Please just stop! You can stop telling us the make and model of her car when,most of the time, there's no reason to be so specific about it. we all know what kind of car Danielle drives by now. I hope that the future books in this series won't be so ridiculous. But, believe it or not I do enjoy this series. I just want to keep enjoying them.

5 stars

This is a very good paranormal cozy mystery series. I have read most of the books on my Kindle and I enjoy listening to them as well. I hope all of the books are made into audio books.

Literally fantastic

I love each one of the stories. They are fantastic, romantic, sweet, mysterious, intriguing and interesting even thought is so unreal. Everyone is millionaire, beautiful, blond, blue eyed etc. Might be consider discriminatory because I don’t see people black, tan, etc with black, curly hair… but still awesome!

each story holds my attention

the men are always so loving and supportive of their women. I love the idea of spirits and people who are sensitive to them.

Poor Narration

The female characters in these books are so often portrayed as helpless or unintelligent. The only one who seems to be somewhat realistic is Danielle, and even she has “dumb blond” moments. There’s also too much emphasis placed on the female characters’ looks. But the most annoying thing is the narration.

Not sure

I’ve enjoyed this series very much up to this point, but I’m really off put by the direction of the “relationship” between Danielle and Walt.

Otherwise I’m really enjoying the mysteries and how well planned they are. I like the whimsical way ghosts are woven in. Progression of the unhealthy “romantic” nature of the relationship between Walt and Danielle will be the thing that makes me stop the series.
