A blind medium. A murdered ghost. A killer who's gotten away with it for seventy years.
When Mara Westfield inherits a cottage in the coastal town of Thornfield Hollow, she's hoping for a fresh start after her divorce and vision loss. Instead, she gets a seventy-year-old mystery—and the ghost of the man at its center.
Nathaniel Thorne was pushed from the lighthouse in 1952, his murder covered up by someone powerful. For decades, his spirit has remained trapped, invisible to everyone. Until Mara arrives. Her blindness, it turns out, allows her to perceive the paranormal world others can't see.
Nate needs justice. Mara needs purpose. Together, they make an unlikely team.
But when a journalist investigating the same historical property fraud is killed at the lighthouse—the same way—Mara realizes the danger is present-day. The killer is still alive, still powerful, and willing to murder again to protect their secrets.
Mara must: Prove a seventy-year-old murder using a ghost as her witness
Fiona Mapleton writes paranormal cozy mysteries that celebrate found family, impossible love, and protagonists who solve the unsolvable. The Thornfield Hollow Mysteries feature Mara Westfield, a blind medium who teams up with the ghost of a 1952 murder victim to solve cold cases and catch killers. When not writing about ghosts and small-town secrets, Fiona can be found enjoying her two rough collies, drinking too much coffee, and plotting the perfect murder (on paper, of course).View all by Fiona Mapleton
