Publisher's summary

If Tipsy Collins learned one thing from her divorce, it’s that everyone in Charleston is a little crazy—even if they’re already dead.

Tipsy, a gifted artist, cannot ignore her nutty friends or her vindictive ex-husband, but as a lifelong reluctant clairvoyant, she has always avoided dead people. When Tipsy and her three children move into the house on Bennett Street, she realizes that some ghosts won’t be ignored.

Till death do us part didn’t pan out for Jane and Henry Mott, who have haunted the house for nearly a century. Tipsy’s marriage was downright felicitous when compared to Jane and Henry’s ill-fated union. Jane believes Henry killed her and then himself, and Henry vehemently denies both accusations. Unfortunately, neither phantom remembers that afternoon in 1923.

Tipsy doesn’t know whether to side with Jane, who seems to be hiding something under her Southern belle charm, or Henry, a mercurial creative genius. Jane and Henry draw Tipsy into their conundrum, and she uncovers secrets long concealed under layers of good manners, broken promises, and soupy Lowcountry air.

Living with ghosts, however, takes a toll on her health and possibly even her sanity. As she struggles to forge a new path for herself and her children, Tipsy has a chance to set Jane and Henry free—and release the ghosts of her own past.

Most annoying narrator

The book moves so slow and the narrator’s voice does not help. She is so slow and nasal it is like scratching a chalkboard. Wish I could return for a credit.

Slow & boring

Story moves so slowly I couldn’t even finish it. I’m halfway through and nothing much has happened. Her character is lacking in any interest or depth. The premise of this plot is good and could have made a great story. The author should go back to writing school.

AI or live narrator? hard to tell.

Couldn't follow the story because the narrator sounded like a really good AI voice. Inflections in all the wrong places. I understand Southern dialect, as I am from the South - but I had to rewind and re-listen multiple times. Decided to return after 2 chapters. I will read the kindle version instead. Sorry Johanna.
