Life as a ghost can be a lonely existence and Robert counts himself lucky to have had Clothilde by his side for thirty years.
They watch the seasons pass and the mourners weep. Other ghosts come and go as they deal with their unfinished business.
When Clothilde makes quick friends with a new arrival, Robert marvels at seeing her laugh and behave like a teenager again — even if it means loneliness for him.
She deserves some happiness.
But when a second girl arrives in their cemetery, a pattern emerges. Robert and Clothilde must once again apply their crime-solving skills to go after their new friends’ murderer.

Loved it!!

Wonderful mystery. I got tired of the same old type of mystery story so finding one told from an entirely different perspective was great. Plus the touch of fun and witty situations was very entertaining. Loved it!!

A good short story

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 8, 2021

Verified Purchase

This is sold as a 'stand-alone' - but I think the reader would benefit from reading both the series and the other, individual, stories.

While the other characters are almost all named, the narrator is strictly anonymous, to the extent that we learn absolutely nothing about them. This means that they appear disconnected from the other characters. Presumably, there is more information in the other stories.

The basic premise is good, but the problems of ghostly existence are too easily solved, leaving me wondering why the ghosts didn't use those methods decades before.

It is also odd that the police had so easily accepted the obvious, but untrue, explanation of the crimes and only now realised there was a pattern and another explanation. Just when it was getting into its stride, the story ended, leaving some threads unresolved.

All in all, a good, very short, read; but not really a stand-alone tale.
