Never in my almost thirty years did I think my new normal would be talking to ghosts, yet here we are. After inheriting a PI business, I find my clients are more incorporeal than not and are relying on me to solve their untimely deaths. Unfortunately, being a magnet for ghosts has its downside. Hello? Lack of privacy, for starters. Not to mention looking like a looney tune for holding animated … holding animated conversations with myself. But the biggest problem? Their killers don’t want me on the case.
Now I have a new mystery to solve. Local psychic Myra Hansen woke up dead and she’s none too happy about it. Seems she didn’t see that one coming! Together with my ghostly best friend, a talking cat, and Captain Cowboy Hot Pants—or, as he likes to be called, Detective Kade Galloway—I’m in yet another race against time.
Catch a killer before the killer catches me.
Join Audrey Fitzgerald in the Ghost Detective series, a paranormal cozy mystery featuring a talking cat, a ghost, and a murder to solve.

OMG Jane is one writer I absolutely love, if you want some giggles or even tears rolling down your cheeks laugh this lady can supply it. Yes what happens in the yoga scene happens in classes. Anyway in this book Audrey is looking at having a great day yep that is so not happening, the day falls apart almost right from the start for her, and ends with a crash. I’m loving Audrey’s character is one well written character, detective cowboy hot pants Galloway and of course Ben are also well written. I love Thor the cat I can just see him acting the way he is portrayed. I love how at the end Galloway just accepts what Audrey reveals to him as if it is nothing, yep this guy is a keep and Audrey is proving she can at least defend herself some. But now I’m curious as to her stalker friend Mills and I’m hoping we get some more answers about him in the next book.
This is the second book in the series and it was definitely a fun one. This paranormal cozy mystery has it all – a murder to be solved, a little romance and a whole lot of humor. I was laughing out loud in several parts. Audrey is a fabulous character that is full of life, really clumsy and very smart. Her best friend Ben, who happens to be a ghost, helps out with the detective work. Kade the detective, aka Captain Cowboy Hot Pants, is there to investigate the murder and add a little romantic tension to the mix. This is one spectacular read and I highly recommend it.
I received an ARC of this book and voluntarily reviewed it.
This book is hilarious!
OMG.. car chases, murder, mystery and so much hilarity.
I absolutely love this series so far. Audrey is so much fun, and her nickname for Detective Galloway is Captain Cowboy Hot pants hahahahaa.
Audrey and Ben have to solve a bank robbery, and a murder of the local psychic.
Thor is still complaining about late meal times lol, and Audrey is becoming attached to him even though he is a little high maintenance.
If you loved cozy mysteries with a paranormal theme to them, this is definitely worth the read 🙂
I love Audrey’s nickname for Kade! What do we learn about a local psychic named Myra? I love it when Audrey learns more about herself and that it is not just Ben! I love Kade! Oh goodness, this story is a hoot! Who are Ashley, Lee, Rhys, and Skye? What do these folks have to do with what is happening in the story, if anything? This story moved forward nicely with Kade and Audrey! The cat really comes out of the bag, so to speak in this story! Wait and see what I mean! Enjoy.
RECEIVED THIS BOOK AS A GIFT from Booksprout FOR A FAIR/HONEST REVIEW and REVIEWER FOR Bloggin’ With M. Brennan.
Recently, I’ve really gotten into the genre of cozy paranormals. I’ve always been a fan, but this has moved into second place right behind urban fantasy. Add to that, I’ve always enjoyed this author’s UF. However, this series has been her best, and this second in the series is no exception. Audrey is just so funny and entertaining without being a mockery. I love the interactions between her and Galloway, or Captain Cowboy Hot Pants. Throw in an interesting mystery, and this is a great book, and I just can’t wait to see what comes next with them…especially with the ending!! Great characters, wonderful mysteries, and fun action/interactions make for a great time. Highly recommend! I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.
Another wonderful book by Author Jane Hinchey.
The character of Audrey is so awesome.
I am loving reading this series. Can’t wait to read the next one.
I highly recommend reading this series of books…
Author Jane Hinchey at her best!
These are the kind of stories that I absolutely love! The first book set the stage for the series and this one has moved it up a notch or two. Great story-telling and fantastic vision. Stories like this are what hooked me about this author. Her best talent lies right here. She can spin a tale with the best of them! Loved it!
Clumsy and uncoordinated Audrey Fitzgerald was on her way to be a private detective. A couple of cases had arrived although not as she expected but something is something and she needed to fulfill the hours for her license. But her luck suddenly changed when she found herself in the middle of a dangerous event with turns that would require her intervention. Stumbling and making me laugh with her comments and her awkwardness Audrey was decided to discover the culprits. Too much in her plate that had her hot beau worrying and fearing for her. Liked Detective Kade Galloway’s character and his protectiveness and understanding toward Audrey. Action, suspense, lot of amusing situations, entertaining descriptions and narrations, a not common murder solving team, romance and some passion.
Another hit! The two books in this series so far have been just plain fun to read. Audrey is very likeable – a bit clumsy (OK quite clumsy), smart as a whip and cute to boot! Supporting characters include her former best friend (now a ghost), his talking cat (yep, a talking cat) and poor Detective Galloway – quite normal, but about to have world turned upside down if he wants to get involved with Audrey! A mix of everything – mystery, a little romance, plenty of humor and wit – very entertaining. A series I would highly recommend – but start with book #1 for the complete experience.
Ms. Hinchey has been one of my favorite authors for some time. Normally I only read PNR. But when she started her cozy mystery writing, I figured I would give it a try. I gotta say, I’m hooked. This series has a bit of the paranormal that I enjoy, and it is filled with humor. Audrey’s story just keeps getting better. I don’t think I have laughed harder than while reading this series. When book one kicks off so well, you don’t expect the same impact from book 2. Well this one nailed it. A ghost as your best friend, a talking cat as your new charge and I can’t leave out the sexy detective. All amazing characters and writing that flows smoothly, this is not to be passed over. There is just soo much here to love. Thank you for another great escape. I am so excited to see what comes next……..
Give up the Ghost is the second book in the Ghost Detective series by Jane Hinchey.
There was non-stop action in this book. The crime investigations were interesting and there was plenty of humor. The yoga class was hilarious. I love Thor. My cats act the same way about their food bowls and I can imagine they say the same things he does.
I can’t wait to see how Audrey and Galloway’s relationship continues to progress especially with how the book ended.
I received this book as a gift and I am voluntarily reviewing it.
Audrey is a PI in training with a sexy police detective as her mentor. This is a mystery with great characters, humor, a best friend ghost, the sexy detective and a talking cat. Fun, fast read, very enjoyable.
I love Audrey! This is the second book and just as fun and entertaining as the first! The characters are great. I cant wait to read more and see where these latest developments go in her PI business and personal life.
Really cool and very interesting,love the plot and characters
GREAT STORY WITH GUARANTEED LAUGHS
This is a great detective story on its own but throw in the ghost, cat, cops and a feisty girl that doesn’t know when to quit youve got yourself a winner.
RECOMMENDED SERIES.
Audrey is at it again. She see’s ghosts, talk about fun. A local psychic is killed and she wants Audrey’s help. There is a bank robbery and of course, Audrey is right in the middle of it. Sparks are flying hot and fast with her detective mentor. This book is fast, fun, and completely delightful. This is another hit series for Jane Hinchey! I received a copy of the book and am providing my opinion.
Audrey has a new case – this time local psychic was killed and how she has to find the killer, as always it won’t be that easy.
This series is full of fun and the mIn female lead make is SO much funnier!
I really enjoy those short stories as they are always about fun!!
Love the humor in these books. More please. A great author that keeps you interested in the characters. With a wonderful writing style. I am voluntarily reviewing an ARC gifted by the author with no obligation
Sparks fly between Audrey and Dective sexy cowboy pants as this cozy mystery heats up deliciously! Audrey and Ben are finding the rhythm of solving crimes together and danger visits Audrey, yet there is plenty of relief in the form of a family time that’s good for a laugh!
Give up the Ghost was just as fun as the first in the series. Audrey, whilst still a PI in training, is getting the hang of this gig. She tends to get herself caught up in strange situations….this time she is at the bank during a heist and Audrey is hired to determine the murderer of the local psychic. But are the 2 events related? Seems that way! And now Audrey can see and talk to Ghosts (and not just Ben…).
Audrey, along with assistance from her Ghost friend Ben, Ben’s talking cat Thor and hot sexy cop Galloway, sets out to solve the murder. Lots of fun and laughs along the way!
