Can a no-nonsense lawyer and a capricious free spirit solve crime without murdering each other? Evangeline Malcolm Carstairs, dog-walker and ghost-buster, has one goal—earning respect for her paranormal abilities. When ten-year-old Loretta Post walks into her Psychic Solutions Agency bearing two sad ghosts and claiming someone is trying to kill her, Evie is on the case. When the child’s hunky guardian shows up to drag Loretta back to boarding school, Evie is not about to send the grieving child into possible danger. Besides, Loretta is a Malcolm and belongs with family—especially if someone murdered her parents. Efficient, no-nonsense Savannah lawyer Jax Jackson normally investigates corporate fraud. Babysitting an errant ten-year-old has never been on his agenda—until his firm’s wealthy ward escapes school and heads straight for a family with a con-artist history dating to the 17th century. Jax isn’t buying ghostly warnings, but when his investigations turn up land fraud in the small town Loretta’s parents once owned, he reluctantly relies on Evie’s insights—which puts them on a collision course with the town authorities and his own father.

What happens when the solutions aren't sensible? Head of the Sensible Solutions Agency Evangeline Malcolm Carstairs doesn’t have time to puzzle out why a film production’s animals have gone berserk. She is about to be married. In a week. Although she probably should find the film’s missing animal handler. That’s where her cousin, veterinarian Idonea Malcolm comes in. Iddy reads animal minds. Iddy has an animal clinic bursting at the seams and no patience with hysterical actors, until sexy Cade Garcia, the film’s annoying line producer, offers enough cash to expand her clinic if she helps find the missing trainer. But hardheaded Cade is skeptical when Evie and Iddy claim a poltergeist haunts the animals. . . With everyone on the crew, including Cade, a suspect, a wedding looming, and bulls on the loose, Evie and Iddy must rely on help from ghosts and sheep to sort through the lies of unreliable actors to discover the truth—before anyone else dies.
