Kelly Whitecastle is returning to campus after an afternoon of studying in a coffee shop when she is approached by another woman.  Tanisha Costello is certain she is being haunted by a spirit at home, and wants Kelly's help to figure out how to get it to stop.It's not quite as out there as it sounds.  Kelly is the daughter of Emma Whitecastle and can indeed talk to spirits, but Kelly doesn't want to have anything to do with Tanisha.  However, Granny Apples, Kelly's great-great-great grandmother, insists, and soon the two are visiting Tanisha to figure out if there is a ghost in her apartment.  Even if there is, can Kelly do anything about it?While we wait for another full length novel starring Emma and Granny (13 months to go, but who's counting?), Sue Ann Jaffarian and her new publisher decided to release a couple of e-books.  Granny is the element that ties the stories together, although Kelly has been a supporting character in the past.  I liked this chance to get to know her better.  She and T are great characters, and I enjoyed spending time with them.  Of course, Granny herself is a hoot as always.And the story?  I had to keep reminding myself that it is a novella.  It's short, but it is enjoyable.  The pace was good and the mystery resolved well.  Be aware that the end of the file includes previews for the earlier novels in the series, so if you haven't read them, you'll get a taste of what else you can enjoy.All told, this is a fun story that will please Granny's fans while we wait impatient for more adventures.  And if you enjoy light paranormal mysteries, give this story a chance for the price.  You'll soon by hooked on the entire series.NOTE: The author did gift this to me as a birthday present.  There was no mention of an honest review, however, since I have reviewed all of her other books, I'm sure this review isn't a surprise.
