Publisher's summary

When the Blue Lady walks...

Since 1887, Cliffhouse Lodge has been famous for its luxurious accommodations, fine dining...and its ghosts. Overlooking Blue Lady Lake, nestled among tall pines, Cliffhouse has just been renovated by its owners, Teddy and Adam Bellamy, and their daughter, Sara.

Cliffhouse has not always been a place of rest and respite, though. Over the years, it has served many vices, from rum-running to prostitution - and although the cat house has been replaced by a miniature golf course and carousel, Cliffhouse retains its dark history, darkest during the roaring twenties, when a serial killer called the Bodice Ripper terrorized the town, and a phantom, the Blue Lady, was said to walk when murder was imminent.

Death walks with her...

Now, there’s a new killer on the loose, and the Blue Lady sightings have returned. The Bellamys are losing maids, and guests are being tormented by disembodied whispers, wet phantom footprints, and the blood-chilling shrieks of mad laughter that echo through the halls of Cliffhouse in the dead of night.

The little mountain town of Cliffside is the perfect hunting ground for a serial killer...and the Blue Lady. Police Chief Jackson Ballou has bodies piling up, and between the murders and the mysteries, he can hardly pursue his romance with Polly Owen. And Sara Bellamy may lose her true love before they even have their first kiss.

This is a truly gripping thriller!!

OMG...this book held me in its grasp from the first page!!! This is a unique mix of paranormal, murder mystery and comedy...yes, I said comedy! The Cliffhouse Lodge has been around since the 1800s, just above an idyllic lake. Life would be great, except for.a pesky and vicious ghost known as The Blue Lady...oh, and some strange murders...and a narcissistic authoress, who provides quit a bit of drama. The narrator is fantastic!! He really brought each character to life...I can still hear the voice of ‘authoress’ Constance Welling!! If you want to be scared, then dying with laughter, then cringing at a murder scene...you NEED this book. Totally worth the read/listen.
I voluntarily accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A Unusual Ghost/Elemental Murder Mystery

The story is based around a Hotel with a Long and varied history. This hotel was the center of a Murderer in The 1920's called the Bodise Ripper. Now in today's modern times, unusual deaths are happening once again. There is a character an "Authorise" who is a character I hated and the Narrator did her voice so well I cringed when I would here it. There is also a character called the"Blue Lady" which the lake is called also. There have been tales of her all throughout history in that location. It is said Death follows sightings of the "Blue Lady".

Great story with great vocals!

I’ve really enjoyed listening to this story so far. It has intriguing writing with nice story lines to follow. The vocals were perfect for the story! I love the versatility for the characters and I think the vocals are really well suited to this genre in general!

The Cliffhouse Haunting review

A fantastic tale, tells the story of an ensemble of interesting characters having difficulty with a ghost in a small town. Another winner by the author duo.

WOW!!

This story is amazing. There is a good deal of a hint of perversion, both sexually and morally. It isn't exactly spelled out like with deep romances but more like referenced. The storyline is intricate and the characters very well developed. The narration has handled it perfectly though I admit I thought differently at the very beginning. His voice seemed too soft. But as it progressed, I saw the value of the softer voice and it worked out great. Be forewarned, though... this a very long book. I don't believe I have listened to one this long before. So, you will definitely get your money's worth with it!

Enjoyed

This was a great story. The narrator did a great job on the voices and giving each character a voice that matched their personalities. The author wrote a great story with great character work. I would recommend reading.

Very very good haunted/comedy book!

First and foremost the narrator did a great job playing all the characters. I loved how I couldn’t tell his real voice from the characters. He was very creative with them. Especially with Constance! She was hilarious btw. Second the Authors did a great job telling this creative story. It was fun. The haunted part was very creative to. I did not see the end coming at all. I liked how long it was and I liked that I felt like I got to know the characters. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this.
