Description
Fiona Gordon is starting over. Unbeknownst to her, so is her roommate, George Manchester, although he’s been dead for over a century.
After a painful divorce, she’s trading big-city bustle for the sleepy charm of Brentford, Connecticut, and a job as director of the town Library. She doesn’t realize that George—a dashing but irritable 19th-century gentleman trapped in a portrait—is going with her. Desperate to reunite with his lost love, Rose, George needs Fiona’s help. But first, he has to convince her he’s real.
As Fiona adjusts to her new life, she tries to keep her fascination with George secret—or risk being thought weird, to say the least. But when new friends turn out to have their own secrets, she must reconsider whether keeping things hidden is a good idea.
Searching for George’s Rose, organizing the library, and trying to figure out a new friendship are almost overwhelming until Fiona comes to realize that love, redemption, and perseverance can jump-start second chances that transcend even the boundaries of time.
Heartwarming, witty, and laced with supernatural intrigue, A Field Guide to Library Ghosts is a story of letting go, finding hope, and daring to believe in the impossible.
Advance Praise
“Gabi Coatsworth has hit a home run with this charming story of a small-town library director navigating her recent divorce and new job, not to mention a demanding ghost who pines to be reunited with his true love. A delightful read with a lovable cast of characters. I was rooting for Fiona and George and all the rest!” Linda Rosen, author of The Emerald Necklace
“A Field Guide to Library Ghosts is a cosily woven romantic mystery, with two storylines that slowly knit together to provide a satisfying and surprising ending.” Katherine Williams, author of The Glovemaker’s War
“A Field Guide to Library Ghosts is absolutely delightful. Told from two points of view (one character is not alive but definitely lively), the book explores the depth of love, especially a love that is eternal.” Lorraine Norwood, author of The Margaret Chronicles
