Bailey Ruth Raeburn is back, racing against the Heavenly clock in an all-new mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of Ghost Times Two.
 
Bailey Ruth finds herself comforting a distraught sister when she’s sent to Adelaide, Oklahoma, on her latest mission. Susan Gilbert receives a $100,000 ransom demand for her younger sibling. When the caller wants Susan to pay a visit to her wealthy boss and take the cash from his safe, Bailey Ruth follows Susan to the home. But she finds herself in a quandary, knowing that robbery is hardly a Heavenly pursuit.
 
While Susan waits to hear back from the kidnappers, Bailey Ruth attempts to piece together how the criminals targeted Susan and how they know about her boss’s money. At a luncheon the previous week, Susan’s boss asked her to open the safe so all the attendees knew it was filled with cash. Could one of the rich man’s closest confidants be behind the abduction?
 
Bailey Ruth is positive she can use her detective skills to figure out which luncheon guest arranged the kidnapping. But an unexpected twist in the case soon has Bailey Ruth seeking a murderer who has plans to send more victims to the great beyond...

      At the start of MWA Grand Master Hart’s breezy, feather-light eighth novel featuring ghost Bailey Ruth Raeburn (after 2016’s Ghost Times Two), Bailey Ruth is sitting on a beach in heaven, surrounded by all the domestic pets from her life on earth and contentedly reading a mystery novel, when she receives a summons from Paul Wiggins, the head of heaven’s Department of Good Intentions. Wiggins dispatches Bailey Ruth back to her hometown of Adelaide, Okla., to help Susan Gilbert, a desperate young woman who seems to be on the verge of robbing her employer, millionaire Wilbur Fitch. When Fitch is found murdered and Susan looks like she could be incriminated, Bailey Ruth shimmers in to investigate. The always snappily dressed ghost has several heavenly skills that help her in her mission, including the ability to make herself invisible. That she’s also a longtime acquaintance of Adelaide police chief Sam Cobb, whom she has helped with past cases, is in her favor. Cozy fans in search of otherworldly escape need look no further. Agent: Deborah Schneider, Gelfman Schneider Literary.
