Meet Alma Timperley. She can:
- Run a hotel
- Solve a mystery
- Talk to ghosts...?
December, 1914: After the death of her aunt, Alma Timperley is surprised when she suddenly finds herself the heiress to the Timperley Spiritualist Hotel in a pretty coastal town in Cornwall.
But not everything is as it seems... the hotel offers guests a very special service: the chance to communicate with the dead.
When the body of one of the hotel's maids is found, it is considered a tragic wartime accident. But the more Alma and the local police try to fathom what happened, the more they begin to realise this is much more than just a death - there might be a German spy in Falmouth.
With the stakes higher than ever, Alma must grapple with her own extraordinary secret if she is going to have more than a ghost of a chance of solving the mystery.
Being able to talk with the dead is one thing; solving their murder is positively ghoulish...
