Wer wagt, gewinnt!Wie könnte eine anständige, leicht unbeholfene und stark koffeinsüchtige Privatdetektivin eine Mutprobe ablehnen? Kurze Antwort: Sie kann es nicht. Und nun versuche ich verzweifelt, herauszufinden, wie ich eine ganze Woche lang ohne Kaffee auskommen soll!Wie soll ich damit klarkommen, wenn meine Laune mies, meine Stimmungen schwankend und meine Geduld längst am Ende sind? Und mit ¿damit' meine ich die Leiche in meinem Vorgarten.Bevor ich ¿Doppelter Espresso" sagen kann, habe ich einen Geist, dessen Übergang ins Jenseits alles andere als reibungslos verläuft, eine übergewichtige Katze, die unablässig über ihre neue (definitiv notwendige) Diät schimpft, und ein Rätsel, dessen Lösung mehrere Besuche in der örtlichen Brauerei erfordert. Vielleicht hat dieser ganze Wahnsinn ja doch noch etwas Gutes an sich ...So viel zu einem einfachen Tag. Ich habe den leisen Verdacht, dass mein Leben bald eine ganz neue Stufe der Verrücktheit erreichen wird.

Amateurdetektivin, Privatdetektivin in Ausbildung, Geisterflüstererin.Das bin ich. Audrey Fitzgerald, Geisterdetektivin. Ich habe mich endlich mit der Tatsache abgefunden, dass ich nicht nur mit Geistern, sondern auch mit Tieren kommunizieren kann. Nun, vor allem mit einem Tier, mit meinem großen grauen Teddybär von Kater, Thor. Was ich noch nicht herausgefunden habe, ist, wie ich meine neu entdeckten Fähigkeiten vor den Einwohnern von Firefly Bay geheim halten kann.Als mich die Präsidentin der Historischen Gesellschaft engagierte, damit ich eine verschwundene Halskette wiederfinde, dachte ich, ich hätte endlich einen Fall, der keine geisterhafte Einmischung erforderte. Wie schwer konnte es schon sein, ein fehlendes Schmuckstück zu finden? Doch die Dinge wurden sehr schnell kompliziert, als die Halskette an einem unerwarteten Ort auftauchte und meine Klientin plötzlich tot war.Jetzt stecke ich bis zum Hals in Geistergeschwätz, ich muss einen Mord aufklären, meine Prüfungen zur Privatdetektivin stehen bevor, ich mache mir Sorgen, dass ich Thor auf Diät setzen muss, und ich glaube, ich habe mich versehentlich in Captain Cowboy Hot Pants - alias Detective Kade Galloway - verliebt. Aber das Schlimmste von allem? Was schreibe ich auf meine Visitenkarte, ohne die Leute in der Stadt zu verschrecken? Amateurdetektivin, Privatdetektivin in Ausbildung, Geisterflüstererin oder Geisterdetektivin?Begleiten Sie Audrey Fitzgerald in der Geisterdetektivserie, einem paranormalen Cozy Mystery Crime mit einer sprechenden Katze, einem Geist und einem Mordfall, der gelöst werden will.

Wer auch immer behauptet hat, dass es Geister gibt, muss verrückt geworden sein.Oh, warten Sie. Das war ja ich gewesen. Ich habe das behauptet. Wenn Sie mir gestern gesagt hätten, dass Geister real sind, hätte ich freundlich gelächelt, genickt und einen Psychiater angerufen, damit er Ihren verblendeten kleinen Geist heilen würde. Jetzt bin ich an der Reihe, an meinem Verstand zu zweifeln, nachdem der Geist meines besten Freundes in meiner Wohnung aufgetaucht ist. Waren es die Tequila-Shots in der Nacht zuvor, die diese Erscheinung verursachten? Oder vielleicht ein paar Schläge zu viel gegen den Hinterkopf - denn seien wir ehrlich, ich bin ein Tollpatsch, und es würde mich nicht wundern, wenn ich im Laufe der Jahre meine grauen Zellen irreparabel geschädigt hätte.Nun muss ich akzeptieren, dass das Paranormale tatsächlich existiert. Doch leider fehlt meinem Geisterfreund neben seinem Körper noch etwas anderes: sein Gedächtnis. Er weiß nicht, wie er gestorben ist, vermutet aber ein Verbrechen und bittet mich um Hilfe bei der Suche nach seinem Mörder. Das kann ich nicht ablehnen, denn ich habe eine Schwäche für gute Krimis, und die Chance, den Mörder meines Freundes zur Rechenschaft zu ziehen, ist zu gut, um sie nicht zu nutzen.Mich erwarten viele Überraschungen, als ich mein verborgenes Talent für Detektivarbeit entdecke, ganz zu schweigen von der unerwarteten Erbschaft einer sprechenden Katze und vielem mehr. Aber was das größte Problem von allen ist? Captain Cowboy Hotpants, oder - wie er gerne genannt wird - Detective Kade Galloway vom Firefly Bay Police Department. Er ist ein toller Polizist, aber mein Misstrauen gegenüber der Polizei sitzt tief. Und kann ich ihm trotz seiner Beteuerungen, dass er mir helfen will, wirklich vertrauen, oder dient sein Hilfsangebot nur dem Zweck, mich davon abzuhalten, die Wahrheit herauszufinden?Ich denke, ich werde es wissen, wenn der Tod an meine Tür klopft.Begleiten Sie Audrey Fitzgerald in der Geisterdetektivserie, einem paranormalen Cosy Crime mit einer Katze, einem Geist und einem Mordfall, der gelöst werden will.

Ein schlechter Tag mit Kaffee ist besser als ein guter Tag ohne Kaffee.Eine Privatdetektei in der Küstenstadt Firefly Bay zu leiten, sollte eine ziemlich einfache Aufgabe sein. Eine, bei der ich das Sagen habe - bildlich gesprochen, denn wenn man mir, dem kleinen Tollpatsch, die Verantwortung für eine Schusswaffe überträgt, ist Ärger vorprogrammiert. Nach ein paar hektischen Monaten wünsche ich mir nichts mehr als einen ruhigen Tag, an dem meine Fälle nicht anstrengender sind als die Entscheidung, ob es am Abend Pizza oder Tacos (oder beides) gibt.Ich hätte wissen müssen, dass mein Tag nur übel enden kann, als jemand heimlich meine Kaffeepads gegen koffeinfreien Kaffee austauscht (ernsthaft, wer tut so etwas?) und Savannah McIntosh auftaucht, die Ex-Freundin meines Freundes - Captain Cowboy Hot Pants, auch bekannt als Detective Kade Galloway - und Ermittlerin für interne Angelegenheiten.Bevor ich Café Latte sagen kann, weicht Galloway meinen Anrufen aus, habe ich einen Waschbären am Hals, der beschlossen hat, dass ¿mi casa su casa" ist, verliebt sich mein geisterhafter bester Freund unsterblich und verschwindet ein junges Mädchen, Kira Melendez.So viel zu einem einfachen Tag. Ich habe den leisen Verdacht, dass mein Leben bald eine ganz neue Stufe der Verrücktheit erreichen wird.

Niemals in meinen fast dreißig Jahren hätte ich gedacht, dass es meine neue Normalität sein würde, mit Geistern zu sprechen, aber so ist es nun einmal.Nachdem ich eine Privatdetektei geerbt habe, stelle ich fest, dass meine Klienten eher unkörperlich sind und sich darauf verlassen, dass ich ihren vorzeitigen Tod aufkläre. Leider gibt es jedoch auch Schattenseiten, wenn man ein Magnet für Geister ist. Hallo? Der Mangel an Privatsphäre, für den Anfang. Ganz zu schweigen davon, dass mich alle für verrückt halten, weil ich mich angeregt mit mir selbst unterhalte. Aber das größte Problem? Ihre Mörder wollen nicht, dass ich ihren Fall annehme.Jetzt habe ich ein neues Rätsel zu lösen. Die ortsansässige Hellseherin Myra Hansen ist als Tote aufgewacht und nicht gerade glücklich darüber. Anscheinend hat sie das nicht kommen sehen! Zusammen mit meinem geisterhaften besten Freund, einem sprechenden Kater und Captain Cowboy Hot Pants - oder, wie er gern genannt wird, Detective Kade Galloway - nehme ich erneut den Wettlauf gegen die Zeit auf, um einen Mörder zu fangen, bevor er mich erwischt.Begleiten Sie die Geisterdetektivin Audrey Fitzgerald in diesem paranormalen Cosy Mystery Crime mit einer sprechenden Katze, einem Geist und einem Mordfall, der gelöst werden will.

Avoid trouble and keep a low profile.Holly's reality? She's on a rollercoaster ride of danger, where she can't go five minutes without getting injured, and the only thing hotter than the murder investigation is her crush on the sheriff.Life has become messier than a kid's finger-painting project, more complicated than advanced calculus, and more dangerous than running with scissors.

Holly Day isn't who she thinks she is.Forced into hiding in the small town of Gravestone, she's under strict instructions not to use her magic. If only it were that easy.When her rat familiar unearths a human bone-in Holly's backyard-she's on the case. Only Holly has another problem... her memory is like swish cheese-full of holes. Is she really the SIA Agent she thinks she is?

As a private investigator and ghost whisperer, I ask myself many questions-why can I see dead people? Can I wear purple to my own wedding? How do you get peanut butter out of a raccoon's fur?

Never in my almost thirty years did I think my new normal would be talking to ghosts, yet here we are.After inheriting a PI business, I find my clients are more incorporeal than not and are relying on me to solve their untimely deaths. Unfortunately, being a magnet for ghosts has its downside. Hello? Lack of privacy, for starters. Not to mention looking like a looney tune for holding animated conversations with myself. But the biggest problem? Their killers don't want me on the case.Now I have a new mystery to solve. Local psychic Myra Hansen woke up dead and she's none too happy about it. Seems she didn't see that one coming! Together with my ghostly best friend, a talking cat, and Captain Cowboy Hot Pants-or, as he likes to be called, Detective Kade Galloway-I'm in yet another race against time.Catch a killer before the killer catches me.Join Audrey Fitzgerald in the Ghost Detective series, a paranormal cozy mystery featuring a talking cat, a ghost, and a murder to solve.

Whoever said that ghosts exist must be out of their mind.Oh, wait. That was me. I said that. If you'd told me yesterday that ghosts were real I would have smiled, nodded, and called a shrink to fix your deluded little mind. Now it's my turn to question my sanity when the ghost of my best friend turns up in my apartment. Was it the tequila shots the night before causing this apparition? Or one too many bumps to the head - let's face it, clumsy is my middle name, it really wouldn't surprise me if I'd done some irreparable damage to my grey matter over the years.Now I have to accept that the paranormal does, in fact, exist. But sadly, my ghost friend is lacking something besides his body. His memory. He doesn't know how he died but suspects foul play and he wants my help to find his killer. I can't refuse, I'm a sucker for a good mystery and the chance to bring my friend's killer to justice is too good to pass up.Surprises abound as I discover a secret talent for sleuthing, not to mention an unexpected inheritance of a talking cat among other things. But the biggest problem of all? Captain Cowboy Hot Pants, or as he likes to be called, Detective Kade Galloway of the Firefly Bay PD. He's one smokin' cop, but my distrust of the police runs deep and despite his assurances that he's here to help can I really trust him, or is his offer of assistance designed to keep me from discovering the truth?I guess I'll find out when death comes knocking on my door.Join Audrey Fitzgerald in the Ghost Detective series, a paranormal cozy mystery featuring a cat, a ghost, and a murder to solve.

Amateur sleuth, PI in training, ghost whisperer.That''s me. Audrey Fitzgerald, ghost detective. I''m finally coming to terms with the fact that I can not only communicate with ghosts, but animals too. Well, one in particular, my big gray teddy bear of a cat, Thor. What I haven''t worked out yet is how to keep my newfound abilities a secret from the townsfolk of Firefly Bay.When I''m hired by the president of the local historical society to find a missing necklace, I figured I finally had a case that didn''t require ghostly interference. After all, how hard could it be to find a missing piece of jewelry? Things turn complicated real fast when the necklace turns up in the most unexpected of places and my client turns up dead.Now I''m up to my neck in ghostly chatter, I have a murder to solve, my PI exams are looming, I''m worried I may have to put Thor on a diet, and I think I''ve accidentally fallen for Captain Cowboy Hot Pants-aka, Detective Kade Galloway.
