Erin Gilbert is paid to bring spaces to new life--not to uncover murder. But from the beginning of her job in a Victorian manor, things are totally out of control. It starts with the sighting of a ghost and leads to the discovery of a decades-old secret, a hidden dead space in the attic, and the shocking death of a beautiful young woman. Teamed with her insufferably self-confident competitor, Steve Sullivan, Erin finds herself up against the neighbors, a troubled teen, a woman communing with the dead, and one very unnerved client. The more Erin works on the house, the more manners of death she seems to find until, like peeling off layers of wallpaper,
she suddenly sees it revealed all too clearly: the perfect blueprint for murder....

      Caine delivers another top-notch Domestic Bliss whodunit, her third after False Premises
      and Death by Inferior Design
      . Everyone in Maple Hills, Colo., has something to hide, and that "something" has to do with the decades-old death of Abby, the young girl who is rumored to haunt the Victorian mansion next door to interior designer Erin Gilbert. When Erin witnesses a ghostly apparition frolicking on the mansion's widow's walk one night, she chalks it up to a publicity stunt for the town's annual historic homes tour, in which she has an active part. She's taken the job of renovating the mansion, which means tearing out walls as well as uncovering hidden rooms, bizarre clues and cryptic messages behind old wallpaper. After another young girl dies in the same way Abby was killed, Erin joins forces with hunky Steve Sullivan, a fellow interior designer, to investigate. Suspects abound, and most of them are longtime neighborhood residents. Can Erin unravel the truth before she becomes the next victim? Nifty decorating tips complete the package.
