About this ebook

Whoever said that ghosts exist must be out of their mind.

Oh, wait. That was me. I said that. If you’d told me yesterday that ghosts were real, I would have smiled, nodded, and called a shrink to fix your deluded little mind. Now it’s my turn to question my sanity when the ghost of my best friend turns up in my apartment. Was it the tequila shots the night before causing this apparition? Or one too many bumps to the head — let’s face it, clumsy is my middle name; it really wouldn’t surprise me if I’d done some irreparable damage to my grey matter over the years.

Now I have to accept that the paranormal does, in fact, exist. But sadly, my ghost friend is lacking something besides his body. His memory. He doesn’t know how he died but suspects foul play, and he wants my help to find his killer. I can’t refuse, I’m a sucker for a good mystery, and the chance to bring my friend's killer to justice is too good to pass up.

Surprises abound as I discover a secret talent for sleuthing, not to mention an unexpected inheritance of a talking cat, among other things. But the biggest problem of all? Captain Cowboy Hot Pants, or as he likes to be called, Detective Kade Galloway of the Firefly Bay PD. He’s one smokin’ cop, but my distrust of the police runs deep, and despite his assurances that he’s here to help, can I really trust him, or is his offer of assistance designed to keep me from discovering the truth? I guess I’ll find out when death comes knocking on my door.

Join Audrey Fitzgerald in the Ghost Detective series, a paranormal cozy mystery featuring a cat, a ghost, and a murder to solve.

Ratings and reviews

Ghost Mortem is a book that is like a good bubble bath, it makes you excited by just the thought, then brings you right in fully submerged in the story when you thought just a few minutes would do. I haven't been able to put this story down and the way the author paints the picture of the characters you can truly see it in your minds eye. I haven't finished it quite yet with the sadness of it ending, but then I remember the series has 7 other books so far to continue! It can take a bit to get me intrigued enough to immerse in a good book but if this were a bubble bath I'd be soaking with prunes for fingers...it has got me addicted and loving it!

loved it. the story moved along quickly, really funny had me laughing out loud. the characters are charming. wonderful cosy read. would recommend this to anyone can't praise tis book enough got me out of my reading slump.

Ghost Mortem was a blast! Featuring a terribly clumsy woman whose best friend has been murdered. His ghost then helps her solve his murder, with the help of his cat that she can suddenly hear. There was just enough silliness along with the drama to keep me turning pages for hours.
