Description
When Danielle Boatman inherits Marlow House, she dreams of turning it into a seaside bed and breakfast. Since she’s never visited the property, Danielle’s not sure what awaits her in Oregon. She certainly doesn’t expect to find one of the house’s previous owners still in residence. After all, the man has been dead for almost ninety years—shouldn’t he have moved on by now?
Charming Walt Marlow convinces Danielle the only way he can move on is if she solves the mystery of his death. Danielle soon discovers her real problems may come from the living—those who have their sights on Marlow House’s other secrets.

Enjoyable Read
5By Pool1222Danielle Boatman inherits Marlow House from her great-aunt. With the help of her friend Lily, she plans to transform the old mansion into a bed and breakfast destination. Danielle possesses a unique ability -- she can see the dead. When Danielle and Lily first arrive at Marlow House, Danielle meets the ghost of the former owner, Walt Marlow. At first, Walt does not know he is dead and realizes only Danielle can see and hear him. When Walt realizes that he has died under suspicious circumstances, he asks Danielle to find out the truth of his death. Danielle is determined to uncover the truth and help Walt “pass to the other side”. The characters are well-developed and likable, and the plot unfolds at a perfect pace. It is enjoyable to uncover the secrets of the town, its residents, and Walt's death as Danielle embarks on her quest to unravel the mysteries of Marlow House. Overall, this was an engaging cozy mystery, and I look forward to reading more books in the series.The Ghost of Marlow House

5By GH BergTotally outrageous concept but excellent read.Great read 😁
5By CcRrYySsTtAaLl76I absolutely loved this book!!!!Delightful read!
5By Jenna0531The character development is perfect and the twists and turns are right on track. Some foreshadowing keeps you engaged and in suspense. I highly recommend this book. I finished it in about 5-6 hours. All in one night, I’m happy to say! I couldn’t put it down and was up til 5am reading this! Enjoy and remember, things aren’t always what they seem. ;)Amazing!
5By hvsaporitoI have never finished a book so fast! It was absolutely amazing and when you thought you knew one thing something completely different would happen. 10/10!I'd rate 5 stars but not gonna read the others 30 books sorri
4By Rit2407stumble on this book by chance and loved it only to finish and find out the story is left suspended and there are another 30 books to read to hope for a definite end? thanks but no thanks. This story of never ending television and book series has to end it's exhausting. I'll make sure not to pick any book part of any serie because I want the books I read to have an end so I can move on to something different. Aside from this the book was well written easy and fun to read I liked it a lot so if you are fine with an end which is not really and end or if you like to keep reading multiple volumes then go for it!Loved it
4By dreamer24126Started to read it yesterday and couldn’t get enough. I ended up finishing it today, I can confidently say I’ll be reading the other books in the series and rereading them once I finish them.Very enjoyable read
5By snewzannI started it and enjoyed it right away. A few unique twists and turns in the cozy formula.Gtear
5By Swan rockA delightful read that would make a wonderful movie. Nothing x- rated or vulgar. One suggestion, we come in many colors and it would be nice if all writers would realize that and stop using colored person when referring to a black person. FranToo far out there
1By jjjjjeliToo far out there.A great book!
5By Spider_Monkey_BonesThis book starts as an awesome opening to the story of Danielle and her new ghost friend!Good start for the B&B
5By KITKATKITTERROOThis was a great book start to finish! It had my attention all the way through and wishing I could be in the house to meet Walt too.Nice easy read!
4By RLOMDWay too easy to figure out the mystery, but I liked each backstory for the ghost and the main character.
