Lily Dale, New York, is a unique small town. It is home to the largest concentration of medium and psychics in the country and visitors flock there to get a reading or to communicate with someone they have lost. Bella Jordan and her son Max have recently moved to Lily Dale after her husband's death. She runs the Valley Vista guesthouse, which she bought from an English medium, Pandora.
But now Pandora has an urgent request. Her long lost aunt, her only living relative, is coming to visit her in Lily Dale. Pandora has never told her about her contentious divorce or that she lost the inn and she wants Bella to help her keep her secret. Pandora will move back in during the visit. Oh and by the way, she expects Bella to put Eudora and her companion Nigel up for free as they think they are staying with family.
Bella reluctantly agrees and regrets it when she meets her visitors. There is something off about the pair and she finds it hard to believe that these people are related to Pandora who is one of her favorites. Then things start to make it even more uncomfortable. Bella can tell that someone is searching every room of the house, including her and Max's rooms. Then there is the vet who is interested in her but is it too soon after her bereavement?
This is the fourth novel in the Lily Dale series. This is a cozy mystery with little violence and lots of cooking and relationship troubles. Readers who haven't heard of Lily Dale will be interested to hear about its history and continuing draw as a supernatural town. Wendy Corsi Staub has written over ninety novels and is best known for her psychological suspense novels. This book is recommended for mystery readers who prefer the cozy genre.
