Discover a spooky standalone mystery full of twists from multi-million-selling author Faith Martin.

Recently widowed Effie James never expected to spend her evenings ghost-hunting — until she joins a team of amateur paranormal investigators and finds herself drawn into their strangest case yet.

At a grand Oxfordshire manor, the scent of lavender lingers where Claudia Watkins died suddenly in her bath. Her daughter swears she can still feel her mother’s icy presence. But when the investigators arrive, they uncover something far more chilling than a haunting.

Because Claudia’s death wasn’t an accident. And someone in the family will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried — even as the ghostly Lavender Lady refuses to rest.

Full of charm, intrigue and gentle humour, this atmospheric ghost story is perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Joy Ellis and M.C. Beaton.

Please note this is a completely revised edition of “The Lavender Lady Casefile” published under Faith Martin’s pen name Jessie Daniels.
