An Unquiet Ghost
(2018)(The third book in the Mina Scarletti Mystery series)
A novel by Linda Stratmann
A Victorian mystery with a strong female investigator! Perfect for fans of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and Antonia Hodgson...
A family is being torn apart by rumours of a murderer in their midst. Can Mina solve the mystery and lay the ghosts to rest?
Mina Scarletti has a reputation for unmasking fraudulent psychics. So it is no surprise to her when a young couple write to her seeking her advice.
George Fernwood and Mary Clifton, betrothed distant cousins, have a family secret that is preventing them from getting married. Twenty years ago, their alcoholic grandfather died in his bed and since then rumours have been circulating that someone in the family murdered him.
Desperate to find out the truth, they have decided to seek out a medium to communicate with their grandfather, and they want Mina to help them find one who is genuine.
Though she is not a believer in ghosts, Mina is intrigued by the family mystery and decides to help them in any way she can.
Could one of the new mediums advertising in Brighton really be genuine? Will they help George and Mary find the answers they are looking for?
AN UNQUIET GHOST is a cosy mystery that can be read as a standalone or as part of Linda Stratmann's intriguing historical series, the Mina Scarletti Mysteries, a traditional British detective series with a feisty woman sleuth set in Victorian Brighton.
