Linx and Bogie are proof positive that a book doesn't need romance to grab a reader's attention. Linx is now a little older, a bit smarter and adulting in the world. When a neighbor comes over with talk of a body in her grandson's boat: Linx can't ignore her.
Under the direction of the great detective ghost, Frank Bogle; Linx has a new mission to solve a murder. She will have a little more help in the way of Vincent. His body might be lying in the boat but his ghost is standing next to Linx. Hold on to your hat as Linx puts herself in danger and flirts with Detective Lee. Oh the possibilities....

Comics, Collectables, and a Cold Killer!
Elizabeth Hunter is one of my favourite authors. I love her writing style and her stories tick all the boxes for me. They have an intelligent writing style that’s easy to read. Protagonists with personality traits that feel credible. A range of supporting characters that earn their place in the story. Plots and settings that feel believable – even when based in a paranormal world. And finally, a balanced mix of relationship, tension, action, humour and mystery in the plotline.
A Bogie in the Boat had all the elements that I look for in an engaging story.
Linx is a young woman and a great character. She’s already exhibited many of the personality traits that I love; resilience, humour and self-reliance. Being born into a family of mediums has its own list of pros and cons but I loved how Linx handled the situations life threw at her. Bogie is also quite the character.

I first read this in installments in Elizabeth's newsletter and I loved it, especially the new character of Detective Lee! The brand new epilogue in the book was great and I definitely want more of this series!!

I love the premise of this series--a hard-boiled detective ghost haunts an artsy millennial and urges her to be an amateur detective. This story lived up to my expectations, with great voice and characterization in a fairly straightforward murder mystery.
