4 short mystery stories with ghosts.

Zach’s Guitar

Grace Abrahams helps ghosts who can’t move on until their problems have been solved. The ghosts she meets are attached to items found at storage locker auctions.

Grace is confronted by the ghost of Zach Struthers who was in a boy band in the 1980s. He needs Grace’s help with writing his last song which he intends to give to his former friend and bandmate, Ken Dryden.

This seems simple enough, but Grace runs into one obstacle after another. And it doesn’t help when Ken Dryden launches a vicious attack on her.

Painted Lies

Grace is faced with a difficult case this time as she can’t see the ghost who now needs her help. The ghost communicates by causing figures in paintings to move. Grace studies the paintings, and the pieces of the puzzle slowly come together.

When Grace works out why the ghost needs help, she’s furious and has to take drastic action.

Dead Wrong

Vince is the ghost of a young man who is attached to a coffin. He’s confused when he appears to Grace, and can’t remember the details of his life, although he does recognise the coffin. He jokes that he might be a vampire.

His joke turns sour when his personality abruptly changes and he’s transformed into a nastier version of himself. And this version is intent on causing Grace harm.

The Last Post

The day that Grace feared finally arrives; the day when she meets a ghost she knows.

The ghost is Roz. She’s a postwoman who’s been delivering post to Grace’s shop for years, and even knew Grace’s late parents.

Once Roz gets over the shock of being dead, she tells Grace what her unfinished business is. Roz delivered post to an old lady called Olive, and Olive is in trouble and needs urgent help.

Grace doesn’t hesitate to help and is soon deep into her investigation. Things take an unexpected twist when an attempted murder is revealed. The would-be murderer won’t rest until they claim their victim.
