Praise for Be My Ghost, Book 1 in the Haunted Haven Mystery Series
 
“Maureen Doherty—the smart, forthright protagonist of this exceptional paranormal cozy launch from Perry… is a breath of fresh air in the cozy world: no ruminating on her looks or past tragic loves, no drowning her sorrows in cookies and cake. The ghosts, in a refreshing departure from most paranormal cozies, don’t take center stage, and entertaining subplots, such as her efforts to discover why Miss Gray left her the inn, keep the pages turning. Readers will look forward to Maureen’s further adventures.” —Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW
 
“A laid-off retailer left a property by a mysterious benefactor tries to make it a profitable business in spite of the dead man on the front porch...Perry’s new series kickoff smartly doesn’t give away its biggest mysteries.” —Kirkus Reviews
 
“Perry ("Witch City" series) kicks off a character-rich series with this installment, which leaves unresolved Maureen's mysterious connection to Penelope Gray, for future books. Readers of E. J. Copperman's "Haunted Guesthouse" mysteries will enjoy this title.” —Library Journal
 
“Dive right into this diverting cozy!...Will they crack the case? You’ll have fun finding out.” —Modern Dog (Connie’s Book Club Pick)

“Perry's ability to create a world filled with people and events you want to spend time with is plenty of reason to stick with the series, and some mostly off-stage crime solving that lets Maureen prove her resourcefulness and gives her reason to interact with the ghosts adds just the right bit of spice.” —Reviewing the Evidence
