Product Description:
The local Film Noir festival takes a dark turn when a legendary femme fatale is nearly killed. Now, bookstore owner Penelope Thornton-McClure enlists the help of Jack Shepard, P.I.—even though he and his license expired more than fifty years ago.

I really like this series revolving around female-sleuth Penelope Thornton-McClure and her Haunted Bookshop called "Buy the Book". I love the dialog between her and Jack the Ghost, even though his time was the 1940's and hers is now. When he takes her back in time into his world, women were meant to be seen and not heard. To see how she reacts makes this series all the more fun for me. Can't wait for more!

Alice Kimberly's Haunted Bookshop Mystery series is a treat for cozy mystery readers. The conceit of having a single mom team up with a ghost of a private eye from the late 1940s might not, on the surface, seem like it would work, but Kimberly has done a swell (to use the 1940s lingo) job over her last four books.

The Ghost and the Fem Fatale is another in a great series of fun and fast little mysteries. People who have stuck with the series this long know the score Alice Kimberly does both sensitive bookshop owner (Pen) and hard boiled detective (Jack) really well. The gang is all here to help Pen solve this latest crime a series of murders at the town Film Noir Festival.
Overall-This installment is solid enough but (and I never thought I would say this) Spencer is virtually absent. This ... Read More

I enjoyed this mystery. Penelope and Jack have a certain chemistry that keeps me coming back for more. A nice cozy mystery, but, not the first in the series. So, if you want to read this book, look back at this author's previous books in this series.

I am really enjoying these "ghost stories." The interaction between Mrs. McClure and Jack are heartwarming in their differences due to generation changes. I did miss the opening chapter dealing with Jack's death/murder in 1948 but there are other 'scenes' that do make up for the ommission. I look forward to how the relationship is dealt with between human and ghost in the future.
