A humorous, fun quick read for summer's day. Great story concept, and I LOVE the psychic cat, Wind Song, but I was disappointed that the humans are a bit too clueless to be realistic. They were more caricatures than characters. It really distracted from an intriguing plot. I wasn't expecting a town full of Mensa geniuses, but it would have been nice if at least some of the main characters had some basic common sense and street smarts. Otherwise, I enjoyed reading the book.

Seeing a ghost didn't shock me as much the second time around.
Cookie Chanel has provided a film company with vintage clothing for a movie set. Her second ghost appears after Cookie discovers the film's lead actress dead in a pond. The actress is wearing a dress that once belonged to the new ghost, Alice. Cookie has been ghost free for a while but Charlotte appears soon after Alice comes on the scene. Cookie feels the need to solve the murder (along with some prodding from the ghosts) even though potential suitor Detective Dylan Valentine asks her to stay out of it.
I enjoy Cookie, her friend Heather, Charlotte and Alice. Their interaction amuses me. Add in a psychic cat that can use a Ouija board and read Tarot cards for a fun filled read. The introduction of another possible love interest is irritating. I am not a fan of triangles. I had pretty much figured out who the murderer was before the reveal but it did not distract from the book. I enjoy this series and look forward to the next installment.

A quick read, though not as good as the first one in the series.
