Author: Matthew Costello, Neil Richards
Published: August 24th 2015 by Bastei Entertainment
Format: Kindle, 115 pages
Genre: Cozy Mystery
Series: Cherringham #19
First Sentence: Basil Whistletwaite parked his ancient Volvo Estate in the staff car park of The Bell Hotel, and turned off the engine.
Blurb: Every Halloween, the supposedly haunted Bell Hotel hosts its famous 'Ghost-Hunters Dinner', complete with scary stories, spooky apparitions and things that go bump in the night. But this year's event ends in a terrifying accident, and suddenly everyone wonders. Is there a real ghost loose in the hotel? Jack and Sarah are convinced that the culprit must be human: who would want bad things to happen at the classic hotel? But soon they're forced to confront their own superstitions as they find themselves on the trail of an unsolved Victorian murder.
My Opinion: An entertaining ghost story with an ending that is a first for Jack and Sarah. Not going to spoil it for you but let’s say that Sarah is pleasantly amazed when Jack can still surprise her.
Nineteen shorts in, and I still love this series. They are a great break from larger books and a pleasant way to spend a few hours without making a heavier commitment, for those times when your mind is wandering, and you can’t focus on anything but a short story.
