Paranormal investigation takes balls. Amanda will just have to wing it then. Amanda Harper's life has changed a lot in the few weeks since she met Tempest Michaels. Working out her notice period in Kent Police, she has already taken a new job as a Paranormal Investigator to work alongside him. She could be interested in Tempest, but even after she arrested (thankfully he was innocent) Brett Barker, the single, athletic, multi-millionaire heir to the Barker family fortune he still wants to take her on a date to Paris in his helicopter. How does a girl say no to that? But Tempest has a case for her to look into: There is an elevator in a nearby shopping center that has a ghost in it. The specter has shown up on a photograph and people's belongings have gone missing from inside the lift without anyone getting on or off. The shopping center manager wants the case solved, but will she be able to bring the spook into the daylight and reveal its true nature? Or will she get stuck in the dicksand with Brett like sassy best friend and Police colleague Patience Woods predicts and just be too distracted to solve crimes? It is time to find out if she can be who she wants to be in both her professional and personal life. Time to put her big-girl knickers on.

Paranormal investigation takes balls. Amanda will just have to wing it then. What was she thinking? Quitting her steady job in the Police for an uncertain future at a paranormal investigation agency? No time to dwell on it though as she has a new client with a surprising problem – Kimberly Kousins has been cursed by a voodoo priest. Determined to prove to herself, her former Chief Inspector (whom she loathes) and everyone else, that she is a capable woman with no need for a man to rescue her, she is going to have to bend the day to her will. But voodoo nonsense isn’t the only thing distracting her. After several dates with hot, athletic, superrich Brett Barker, they still haven’t made it into bed. Is that normal? Is he waiting for her to make the first move? Her new boss has inexplicably taken the week off without warning, leaving her to run the business and his best friend, the six-foot-seven-inch, handsome, muscular Benjamin Winters AKA Big Ben is being very clear about what he wants to do with her. You can be certain that nothing will go as planned in this mayhem-filled, madcap cozy mystery.

There are crop circles in the fields near Cliffe Woods and unexplained lights in the sky at night. Does Amanda's latest case have aliens at its core? Of course not, because there is no such thing! But, when a farmer hires paranormal investigator Amanda Harper to look into his glowing milk, she doesn’t sense how crazy things are about to get, and before she can even start investigating, a frozen body is found and the conspiracy theory nutters arrive to argue about the inner workings of an alien freeze ray. Leading the bunch is none other than Jack Hammer, the handsome, self-proclaimed star of the internet show Alien Quest. He wants Amanda as a co-host to boost his ratings and won’t take no for an answer. But Amanda has other distractions, not least of which is her estranged uncle Knobhead arriving unexpectedly to offer his assistance – he was kidnapped by aliens, you know. Amanda is going all out to solve this case, so let’s just hope the help she gets from Patience Woods, her sassy police officer best friend doesn’t, slow her down too much. Crop circles, doped cows, spacecraft sightings, and a mysterious government agency trained to repel alien invasions all combine to give Amanda Harper her toughest test yet in this funny, cozy mystery. The Harper Files are a spin off from the Blue Moon Investigation Series where Amanda is introduced and recruited by Tempest Michaels. You can read this series without ever reading the other books, but I have to raise a minor spoiler alert if you decide to read the Harper Files first and then go back to the Blue Moon series. Please be aware that this book contains some mild cussing and occasional sexual references. There are no elements that should be considered worthy of an R rating though.
