Book: In High Spirits by Kate Danley (O'Hare House Mysteries #4)


In High Spirits by Kate O'Hare is the final book of the O'Hare House Mysteries! Oh how exciting this journey has been, strange, but exciting nonetheless. This was a satisfying ending to a long journey. Somewhat. It is with this volume, however, that most of the questions that have been plaguing my mind were resolved.

We start off with Wesley being carted away by the coppers! He has been accused of murdering Lady Rhoda Beltza amongst other crimes. Clara is then forced to act without her usual partner and takes things into her own hands...

Book: Distilled Spirits by Kate Danley (O'Hare House Mysteries #3)


Distilled Spirits by Kate Danley is the third installment in the O’Hare House Mysteries. In this one, we delve more into the mysteries surrounding the Nero family, tracing all the way back to the missing Peter Nero. This one truly had me in for a bit of a doozy, let me tell you. 

So, Clara ends up hiring Red as a personal driver for her household for his apparent ability to see Minnie. It is through him that they find out about Peter Nero's sister, Rhoda Beltza, Red's previous employer... The plot thickens in this installment as not all things are what they appear to be...

Book: Spirit of Denial by Kate Danley (O'Hare House Mysteries #2)


Alright! It feels nice to be able to read books in a series back to back like this, helps me not forget what had happened in the previous volume. So, I was able to get my hands on Spirit of Denial, the second book of the O'Hare House Mysteries by Kate Danley through Hoopla, an online thing that allows you to check out ebooks and the like with your library card. 

Spirit of Denial picks right up from where A Spirited Manor left off. In this one, Clara confronts her house staff, only to find out that they are honestly and truly ghosts! And she has the ability to see and speak with them! Wesley, on the other hand, is still involved in this book, with him and Clara having fallen for each other, wherever Clara goes, he is not very far behind. Now, what had transpired at the late Lord Horace Oroberg's estate seems to be much bigger than either of these two could've imagined for now they are trying to stop an ancient Egyptian curse! The reason for Violet to have become a demon! The very reason why all those people had died...

Book: A Spirited Manor by Kate Danley (O'Hare House Mysteries #1)


I picked up this pretty thing while roaming around the "free" section on the Kindle store. It sounded interesting and the cover was pretty so I went for it. I am pleasantly surprised I must say. It is good, not amazing, but enough to keep my attention for me to pick up the next one. 

The Spirited Manor is a paranormal mystery with a bit of romance sprinkled in set in a historical fiction setting. The year is 1890 and Mrs. Clara O'Hare has recently become widowed, her late husband, Thomas, having just passed some months prior. She felt as though her life was over, Clara becoming just a shell of herself. She buys a new home and moves, to try and get away from the memories of Thomas, seeing him and being reminded of him at every turn. It is with this new house that she discovers that the veil between the living and the dead is actually quite thin.
