How to Survive Ghosts, Cats and Psychopaths (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798885905091)

This delightfully eerie cozy mystery follows Delia Sanchez, a street-wise ex-cop with a desperate need for a new start. Her first glimpse of the for-sale Loring Mansion, an enormous 1920s Tudor with hand-plastered walls, arched doorways, and miles of oak floors, promises her the do-over she so desperately craves.

But complications arise when she discovers that the late owner left it in trust to her two cats, and the sale is only for a tenancy...which includes caring for the cats for the next ten years!

Things are settled and she moves in...only to find that the malevolent ghost of the past owner still occupies the house. And then there's the sadistic ex-boyfriend of an injured stranger roaming about...
