A deceased (and spoiled) debutante insists mortician Phoebe Astin prove she was murdered, and proves to be more dastardly than the suspects!
Miss Phoebe Astin of The Economic Undertaker has applied her mortician skills to many faces, but a beautiful young debutante needed little work, or so she thought. When the debutante's spirit appears to her, insisting she was murdered and demanding Phoebe do something about it, Phoebe agrees. She has, after all, helped many of her ghostly clients before they move on to the next world. Aided by her brothers, Julius and Ambrose, Detective Harland Stone, journalist friend Miss Lilly Lewis, and her dear friend Kate, who took a portrait of the debutante days before her death, Phoebe finds time is running out before the debutante will be laid to rest. For the Astin family, being dead is no excuse for letting crime go unpunished! Ideal for fans of Deanna Raybourn, Cara Devlin, Irina Shapiro, and Wendy Vella!
