Kelly Whitecastle is home in Los Angeles for Spring Break and enjoying a chance to catch up with her friends.  One of those friends is Chris May, a ventriloquist who has a promising career in front of him.  But as Chris's show is ending, Kelly sees a familiar glow from the puppet he was using.Investigating further, Kelly learns that there is indeed a ghost living in the puppet - a ghost with a warning that Chris is in danger.  Kelly quickly enlists the help of her mother, Emma, and Granny Apples to try to protect Chris.  But since Chris isn't talking and the ghost doesn't know what is happening, can the trio help him?This is the second novella set between the third and fourth book, and it again focuses on Kelly.  Once again, I liked getting to know her better, although I really enjoyed seeing her work with her mom, and series main character Emma, on this case.  All the characters, series and new, are strong, and I really cared about the outcome.The plot was great as well.  In unfolds in a logical way with some good clues and twists along the way.As a novella it was a quick read, but it was well worth it.  I can't wait for the new novel next month.NOTE: I was sent an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
