No good deed goes unpunished.
San Francisco contractor Mel Turner is leading a volunteer home renovation project, and while she expects lots of questions from her inexperienced crew, she can’t help asking a few of her ownespecially about the haunted house next door
the place local kids call the Murder House.
But when volunteers discover a body while cleaning out a shed, questions pile up faster than discarded lumber. Mel notices signs of ghostly activity next door and she wonders: Are the Murder House ghosts reaching out to her for help, or has the house claimed another victim?
Now, surprised to find herself as the SFPD’s unofficial ghost consultant,” Mel must investigate murders both past and present before a spooky killer finishes another job.

This series became a favorite and "must-read" for me right off the bat. This 4th one in the series didn't disappoint me. This one was way less about the ghosts than previous books, but that's okay. Sometimes less is more. We got to meet some more of Mel's family and it looks like her relationshi...
