People and secrets from the past threaten to disrupt Nola Trenholm’s new life in New Orleans in the third novel of the Royal Street series by New York Times bestselling author Karen White.

Nola is ready to focus on starting over in the Big Easy. She wants to get back to work on the renovations of her Creole Cottage, and she is eager to start a new “murder house flipping” business with contractor, closet psychic, and part-time nemesis, Beau Ryan. After their near-death ghostly run-in and the return of Beau’s missing sister, they are confident that the ghost of his mother can finally rest.

For her first project, Nola believes the shotgun house on the famed Esplanade Avenue is a prime fixer upper. The house may have been the site of a woman’s murder and the disappearance of an entire family, but it will be perfect for new-in-town Cooper Ravenel—who also happens to be Nola’s first heartbreak. 

That’s the least of Nola’s worries, though. In addition to the elusive spirit of an angry young woman who accompanied Cooper to New Orleans, the house on Esplanade has its own resident ghosts, including one that’s becoming increasingly dangerous as he tries to hide his own dark secrets.  And then the wet footprints from the spirit of Beau’s mother have returned to let them know that there is still unfinished business before she can rest.  Spectral danger is headed towards them, and it’s up to Nola to convince Beau to help before it’s too late…

People and secrets from the past threaten to disrupt Nola Trenholm’s new life in New Orleans in the third novel of the Royal Street series by New York Times bestselling author Karen White.

Nola is ready to focus on starting over in the Big Easy. She wants to get back to work on the renovations of her Creole Cottage, and she is eager to start a new “murder house flipping” business with contractor, closet psychic, and part-time nemesis, Beau Ryan. After their near-death ghostly run-in and the return of Beau’s missing sister, they are confident that the ghost of his mother can finally rest.

For her first project, Nola believes the shotgun house on the famed Esplanade Avenue is a prime fixer upper. The house may have been the site of a woman’s murder and the disappearance of an entire family, but it will be perfect for new-in-town Cooper Ravenel—who also happens to be Nola’s first heartbreak.
