In A Spirit of Murder, death, love, and murder come to a small midwestern town as The Thin Man meets Ghost. This cozy police procedural comes with a dose of the paranormal and more than a touch of romance. When retired military investigator Matt Jager is reluctant to investigate a brutal crime, the one person he can't say no to returns, and she's staying on the case. Joined by Sheriff Caddie Allemande, Dawn and Matt uncover a web of corruption and violence under all that Iowa nice.
Matt found it hard to shake the dream of Dawn, so real and odd at the same time. Bang, screech, pow, he had no idea what she was trying to tell him; he only knew the life he wanted ended with her fatal car accident. But the mystery of the dream is blown away when their niece becomes the prime suspect in the most sensational murder to hit Mannheim, Iowa, in decades. Matt's experience makes him their niece's best hope, particularly with the local sheriff every bit Matt's equal as an investigator. And still, the image of Dawn wouldn't leave him until he found her inexplicably standing in front of him. Matt, don't freak out. Not the first words you expect from your wife, ghost or not. But with Dawn fully back in this world, they were still desperately in love, and they had a murder to solve.
But Matt and Dawn aren't the only team on the investigation. Sheriff Caddie Allemande is new to her job and Mannheim, but she's more than ready for the responsibility as pressure mounts to bring a murderer to justice. Adding to the complications, Caddie and her team are forced to deal with the legacy of a deposed sheriff and Matt Jager who keeps getting in the way. She's willing to accept the veteran's help, but Caddie is suspicious he might just be seeing things.What Caddie couldn't know was that solving this case would be the first step in solving the murder of Dawn Jager.
