What happened to Jeopardy Belle?

Is she the lost soul that haunts Summerleigh?

Jerica Poole had no idea how quickly life could change until hers is ripped apart at the seams. After a messy divorce and the tragic death of her daughter, she jumps at the chance to fulfill the last wish of her friend, Harper Belle Hayes. The troubled nurse makes the journey to Harper's hometown of Desire, Mississippi, and immediately finds herself swept up in a 75-year-old mystery: what happened to Jeopardy Belle?

When she begins exploring the Belles's old homestead, Summerleigh, she discovers that some of the former tenants live on in ghostly form and would love nothing more than to add Jerica to their numbers.

Small-town drama and a rich southern background add to the tension of this riveting, ghost-filled murder mystery.

Loved the book. Couldn’t stop listening. Wish the narrator knew how to say Mobile, AL. (Inflection is on second syllable not first). I’m from George County Mississippi! Love the story, the hometown connection, and can’t wait for another book!

My first ML Bullock- not my last!

I don’t like Amy McFadden’s narration. It’s annoying and sticky, it just doesn’t flow. Amanda Ronconi is a star as always. I think this book would have been 20000% better if Ronconi had narrated the whole thing.

The changing voices and the story structure makes it hard to follow.

That being said it’s a good story and have definitely read worse audible books.

The first narrator is annoying

So gruesome a tale but I fell in love with Jeopardy and wanted someone to help her so bad. :(

I've read ml bullock books before and this one rank right up there with the rest of them. This book is full of supernatural spirits and the plot is well developed that you can almost see the characters as you listen.it make me wish I could see spirits too

There should be a warning. Religious overtones. Too much referring to Christian beliefs, for my taste. I did not finish it.

Christian references.
