When murder intrudes on a group of ghost seekers, Lee is asked to solve the case by a cop on the verge of retirement. At the urging of his perpetual fiancee Audrey, Lee enlists the help of Mr. O'Nelligan, a scholarly Irishman with a keen eye for solving mysteries. The duo is drawn into a murder investigation involving the "Spectricator," a machine designed to communicate with the dead. Soon, Plunkett and O'Nelligan are knee-deep in a suspect pool that includes a surly medium, a former speakeasy queen, a mysterious Spanish widow, and a whole slew of eccentric servants. Engaging, charming, and smart, The Seance Society by Michael Nethercott is a fresh take on the traditional mystery genre for readers who love original characters, witty dialogue, and a great whodunit. "Mad-cap and mid-century--what a treat! You'll love the reluctant-detective Plunkett and the endearing Mr. O'Nelligan. Clever, quirky and completely charming--this engaging and original mystery is quite a treasure." --Hank Phillippi Ryan, Agatha, Anthony and MacavIty winning author of The Other Woman"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Private investigators $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Seances $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 941 $a 7 945 $a lpt 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629012620.0 952 $l AWPD207 $d 20230209013600.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722042302.0 952 $l MMPE553 $d 20180907023639.0 952 $l LEPI975 $d 20180202014134.0 952 $l TRPE062 $d 20150917010730.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20150911040217.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F2A092A8B4AB11E394CC1E8EDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IW9Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
