New York Times bestselling author Carolyn Hart’s ghostly gumshoe Bailey Ruth Raeburn is frequently amusing…but this is the first time she’s been a muse.
Supervisor Wiggins at Heaven’s Department of Good Intentions dispatches Bailey Ruth to her old hometown of Adelaide, Oklahoma, to help a single mother and struggling writer. Deidre Davenport is almost broke, supporting two children, and hoping to get a faculty job with the Goddard College English Department. Professor Jay Knox is the one who decides who gets the job, but he’s more interested in Deidre’s body than her body of work.
Shortly after his advances are rejected, Knox turns up dead—with Deidre’s fingerprints found on the murder weapon. Bailey Ruth knows her charge is innocent. Now, she must find out who really knocked off Knox if Deidre and her family are ever going to have a happy ending...

      Listeners will enjoy Book 6 of the amusing Bailey Ruth Raeburn series, which takes the ghostly gumshoe to a weekend writer's conference. Narrator Ann Marie Lee's vocal talents are a perfect fit for the quirky angel who doesn't know what it means to follow the rules. Supervisor Wiggins, from Heaven's Department of Good Intentions, has given Bailey Ruth 24 hours to help single mom and struggling writer Deidre Davenport secure a teaching position. Lee's animated voice and varied pace and tone consistently capture Bailey Ruth's resourcefulness--whether she's interfering with the creepy English department head's advances toward Deidre or, after he's murdered, trying to prove that Deidre is not the killer. It's all good fun in this entertaining audio. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2016, Portland, Maine

      At the start of bestseller Hart's sprightly sixth Bailey Ruth ghost novel (after 2014's Ghost Wanted), 13-year-old Katie Davenport prays for help for her 36-year-old single mom, Deirdre, an author with writer's block. In dire financial straits, Deirdre is desperate to land a position teaching creative writing at Goddard University in Adelaide, Okla. Fortunately for the Davenports, Katie's pleas reach heaven's Department of Good Intentions, and Bailey Ruth Raeburn is dispatched to Earth to help out. She materializes just in time to intervene when Deirdre is propositioned by obnoxious Jay Knox, the Goddard official who will decide whether she gets the job. When Knox is later bludgeoned to death, Deirdre's prints are on the murder weapon, a champagne bottle. Bailey Ruth must now prove Deidre's innocence. The logic of Bailey Ruth's powers isn't crystal clear. For example, she can create whatever fashionable outfit she wants to wear, but needs a wig to disguise herself. But fans of this cozy series fans won't mind a bit. Agent: Deborah Schneider, Gelfman Schneider Literary Agency.
