My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Madame Elinor Chalamet returns in another ghostly mystery to be solved, together with Tristan Fontaine, the Duke de Archambeau in the city of Alenbonné, she is still on the hunt for her fathers murderer, but when she is tasked to find a missing lady and her maid by the Duke, as the missing person is the daughter of a friend, she prepares to investigate. Although, as ever, nothing is smooth sailing for Elinor and as all the interviews have been completed and any new leads turn to naught, things seem to come to a standstill, or at least they appear to, until a visit to an old friend connects two seemingly unconnected facts.

Meanwhile, she is discovering that training an apprentice is just as frustrating as she expected, in some ways, it is even more so, especially when her apprentice acts before they think and their bumbling and clumsy nature causes more extra stress on already stressful case and as if that isn’t enough, another rather drunken and worse for wear friend, turns up and makes Elinor feel guilty and frustrated at the same time. This is as well as confusing feelings towards the prickly Duke and why he has been out of touch, despite the way they spent their last time together and how he just cannot seem to decide how he wants to treat her, but she doesn’t let this stop her from investigating in her own way, however he does insist that she has someone accompanying her when she does.

Things come to a head when it is discovered that her rival has become involved in something more than just ghost talking and that it may lead them to the missing young lady and her maid, but as she dips further into what this rival has been doing, she realises that she is going to have to break his trust and risk herself to find the missing girl, but will her ghost talking abilities lead her into more danger than she is expecting, or can she devise a plan to stop it all from going wrong? What will the Duke do when he discovers that she is missing, how far will he go and what will he do to those who stop him from trying to find her? This is another fast paced mystery where nothing is as it seems and danger lies around every corner, twisting and turning into a tangled web which has to be released so the end is revealed.
