Publisher Description

"I'm very intuitive and my hunches are never wrong." Apprentice Ghost Talker, Twyla Andricksson sets out to solve her own mystery in this charming spin-off that features Twyla's special brand of exuberant mayhem. Twyla always does terrible things with great enthusiasm for very good reasons.

When Twyla messes up a seance, she is given the task by Elinor to solve the mystery of a dead servant girl's locket. So while Elinor is out of town (see Spirit Guide) Twyla tackles the task, visiting lawyers, pestering the coroner, and generally putting her nose into other people's business.

Working on her first case also provides a very good reason to escape her matchmaking mother and obnoxious brother.

Return to the ghostly gaslamp world featured in the Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries series and enjoy the stories of the minor characters you loved. This Ghost Mystery spin-off features Twyla Andricksson, Elinor's apprentice. The Blood Locket Mystery is set after events in Spirit Guide so do be aware it will contain spoilers for the Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries series.
