When a fortieth birthday celebration leads to a ghostly visitor, four friends find themselves navigating surprising mysteries and spiritual hijinks, in this clever debut from Melissa Holtz.
Alyssa Mann isn’t adventurous, not since her husband died and she found herself the single mom of a teenage daughter. But there’s no way to avoid celebrating the big 4-0, so when her best friends drag her out for drinks and a tarot reading, she throws caution to the wind and decides to see what the spirits have to say. It’s all fun and games, until she wakes up the next morning with a wicked hangover—and a ghost perched on the edge of her bed.
Sheer panic sends her running to get help from Nick West, the (very attractive) detective who lives next door. When he finds no one inside, Alyssa has to accept that she really did see a ghost. As the dearly departed keep appearing, Alyssa and her friends do their best to learn how to control her newfound power. Trading insults with ghosts, tracking down family heirlooms, and getting closer to the skeptical but helpful Nick is more fun than Alyssa imagined. But when looking into one ghost’s past reveals unexpected—and unwelcome—facts about Alyssa’s late husband’s death, she discovers she just may be in over her head.

      Piper Goodeve and Aaron Shedlock offer fun performances in this light mystery. Alyssa is dragged into a tarot reading as part of a fortieth-birthday celebration. Afterward, she finds herself in the company of spirits. She enlists her neighbor, Nick, a handsome detective, for help, and together they stumble through a paranormal adventure. Goodeve and Shedlock have a great combination of narrative approaches: Goodeve captures the easily ruffled Alyssa, and Shedlock portrays calm, collected Nick. Each narrator offers excellent pacing and clear depictions of outlandish scenes. Their approach to the slow romance between the lead characters is charming and believable. All of this, bundled with some humor and emotional scenes, will tug at listeners' heartstrings in a good way. G.M. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine
