Good blend of mystery and the supernatural

If you enjoy haunted house books full of mystery and the supernatural, then you will enjoy this one. I really liked the reveal of how the haunting came to be and the last fourth or so of the book really brought in the paranormal as opposed to.the previous three quarters of the book feeling somewhat along the lines of a cozy mystery. The romantic part of the book luckily did not overshadow the rest of the book but was rather a nice little side story worked into the whole. A nice quick read with a good new take on the haunted house theme.
