Spooky goings on make for a great mystery

I have listened to the author's Frannie Shoemaker series and enjoyed them so thought I would give this series a go too. As normal I don't start with book one but I don't think it matters as this was easy to under stand. If I go back to the beginning it is not because I need to too understand the series it is because I want to see what adventure and mystery I had missed out on. The characters were like able and the excitement the child felt for the holiday season came through nicely. The mystery was good, with a number of suspects. I had guessed the killer but it was just a guess. The only down side, is the story wasn't very long, don't get me wrong this is great if you only have a few hours to kill but I like my stories longer, so you can really get to know the characters. All in all a good mystery and a series I will keep an eye out for.
Max and Lil are traveling to visit Lil's son and family. When they arrive they discover that as part of his new job Terry is arranging a fundraiser for the school by organizing a haunted house tour. Even the children have joined in with the fun and are eager for Grandma Lil and Aunt Max to help. The sisters agree and are soon helping to raise money and scare any unsuspecting visitors but the biggest scare is produced when they find one of the mannequins has been switched for a real dead body. The police shut down the tour and with children missing out on funds the tour was generating, the sisters set out to find the killer so they can go back to making money. The dead woman was part of a coach tour group and was trying to track down a mystery man that came from the area that she met on a cruise. Who is the mystery man and why has nobody heard of him? It also appears the house was being used for a lot more than just a haunted house, but is it connected to the death?The sisters have solved a murder before, can they do it again?
I liked the narrator, she uses her voice well to add excitement to the story.
