About this listen
Phantom PI Paul Harrison from the national best-selling Haunted Guesthouse mysteries returns with a tale of his own in a house full of ghosts, secrets, and spectacular oceanside views.…
Three years ago in a large Victorian house on the Jersey Shore in the town of Harbor Haven, fledgling private investigator Paul and his client, Maxie Malone, were murdered. Since then, recent divorcée and reluctant ghost whisperer Alison Kerby and her 10-year-old daughter, Melissa, have moved in and converted the place to a guesthouse, where Maxie and Paul are now checked in for an eternity and ready to solve any case that comes their way - or at least spook the guests (who love it). Alison’s got a lot on her plate at the moment, however, so when Paul discovers the 300-year-old ghost of a small boy in the house, he decides not to involve her in the case. The boy, named Eagle of the Sun, says he’s searching for his missing mother. Paul’s happy to help Eagle of the Sun find her, though something about the boy’s story doesn’t add up. But why would a lost little ghost lie?
Includes a preview of the next Haunted Guesthouse Mystery, Chance of a Ghost, available February 2013.

A ghost story told from the perspective of a ghost - one who’s a private investigator residing on the New Jersey shore - lends itself easily to comedy. This light and spooky mystery plays with the detective genre in a style that young adult listeners will relish. A Wild Ghost Chase is part of a series about ghost P.I. Paul Harrison and his spectral friend Maxie; the house they share with its mother and daughter owners and the ways they accommodate each other and solve mysteries together. It is the first in the series to be told from the P.I.’s perspective and James Patrick Cronin performs him as a fairly straightforward gumshoe bringing comedic elements in when he and Maxie, who’s somewhat of a troublemaker, interact with the living.
So I heard this one on Audible and it was perfect as an audiobook but in this one we have the whole book from Paul's POV and it definitely made all the more interesting to see Paul solving the case and gathering everyone's help except Allison.
Paul doesn't know what to do when he finds the Ghost of a centuries old little boy who asks him to search for his family.
Being confined to the guesthouse makes it difficult for Paul to search for people and clues but he intelligently ropes in other ghostly resident, Maxie, Allison's daughter Mellisa and even Allison's mother, Loretta along to help him find the child's family.
But Paul soon finds out that things are not adding up but then why would a little child even lie in the first place, right?
I loved finding the answer to that question and I definitely didn't expect what we find. This series is warming my heart all the more with every book and I feel all the characters have become my hangout buddies now.
Can't wait to dive into the next one. Loved this one.
Quick cute read.. So fun
