Publisher Description
There's a Body in the Stacks and Wedding Bells in the Air in SPIRITS UNITED, A Historical Cozy Mystery from Alice Duncan
--1920s Pasadena, California--
It's 1924 and spiritualist-medium Daisy Gumm and her fiancé, Detective Sam Rotondo, discover a dead body tucked away in the Pasadena Public Library's bibliography stacks.
Worse, Daisy's old friend, Mr. Browning, is holding the bloody knife, putting him at the very top of Sam's suspect list.
But Daisy isn't convinced and sets out to exonerate her friend, only to stumble into a professor's geological study, encounter a mad scientist, and uncover a phony gold rush that someone is killing to hide.
"Well plotted with a band of whimsical characters and genuine humor . . ." ~Diane Morasco, RT Book Reviews

Historical mystery hit!
A trip to the library for Daisy and Sam takes a most unsettled turn when a young woman is found murdered in the stacks. When an old friend from school Robert Browning (not the poet) is singled out as the prime suspect Daisy decides to do some snooping. As it turns out all the people involved also work at or go to school at CalTech. Daisy’s old school mate Gladys Fellowes whose husband works at the schools calls her for help giving Daisy the perfect opportunity to get all the suspects in one place at one time for Sam to get the murderer. As usual nothing goes quite to plan but we are treated to an amusing mystery story. Daisy has an uncanny ability to get into the most ridiculous situations that somehow always lead to a solution to a crime. And we still have plenty of shenanigans with Mrs. P as a bonus. A wonderful book in a wonderful series.
