Book Description

Sydney Farina has a gift nobody asked for: dead people text her. It’s how she’s solved multiple murders, saved her sister from a wrongful conviction, and accumulated enough trauma to keep a therapist in business for years. So when she finds her sister’s cheating ex-husband stabbed in his own bed, she’s not surprised when his ghost shows up in her messages.

Brett Epworth was many things—narcissist, manipulator, world-class thorn in Sydney’s side—and apparently he’s just as insufferable dead as he was alive. He doesn’t believe he’s been murdered, and Sydney has to pick out useful information in between his insults and self-praise. But he’s also, infuriatingly, her best lead.

Between a former employee stealing her bakery’s recipes, a new living situation with her boyfriend, and a suspect list that keeps getting shorter and more dangerous, Sydney has her hands full. And as she digs deeper into the Epworth family’s secrets, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear:

The killer isn’t done yet.

Ghostly Group Chat is a paranormal cozy mystery full of humor, family, and a haunted phone that absolutely will not leave Sydney alone.
