Mallory Fontaine is a fraud. Though she comes from a long line of witches, the only magic she possesses is the ability to see ghosts—and most of them are more annoying than helpful. To keep her family business afloat, she conducts tours of the infamous Saphir estate, where the legendary Count Bastien Saphir (Monsieur Le Bleu) murdered his wives a century ago.
When the handsome heir, Armand Saphir, hires her to actually exorcise the vengeful spirit of his ancestor, Mallory can't say no to the gold. But as a real murder occurs in the House Saphir, Mallory realizes she is at the center of a deadly game where the killer might be more mortal than spectral.
