Buttons and Blows

FIND OUT WHO KILLED VIOLET. I WON'T REST UNTIL I KNOW…AND NEITHER WILL YOU.

The note, typed on a manual typewriter, is Amanda Tucker's first introduction to the second ghost she's ever met.

When retro fashion designer Amanda learns that Violet, the sweet little old lady from whom she bought antique buttons, has been murdered, she's dismayed—especially when she realizes the murder occurred the evening after Amanda had visited Violet's shop. Now the ghost who was enamored of the victim is demanding that Amanda help him bring the woman's killer to justice.

It certainly isn't an ideal time for Amanda's parents to be visiting her from Florida for the first time. In addition to Max, the ghostly fashionista, Amanda now has another sassy specter to deal with. Will this one haunt her for the rest of her life?
