review 1: The residents of Spence Mansion are going into the greeting card business. Ghost Olive C. Spence writes the cards and young Seymour Hope illustrates them. The new business came about because author Ignatius B. Grumply started getting letters from an old love who wouldn't take no for an answer. Nadia S. Richenov is determined to get Ignatius back now that he is a successful author and she is having money troubles. Then there are the two escaped criminals who look a lot like the new couple in town offering home security systems. There is a rash of burglaries but no one will listen when Seymour tries to tell them the truth. Olive brings back her old butler, also a ghost, to act as security at the mansion, but he just drives Ignatius crazy. The book is told through letters, gr... moreeeting cards, newspaper articles, text messages and notes. I'm not a huge fan of this format as I think it doesn't do a great job of telling the complete story. However, the book was a fun, quick read with a nice light mystery.
review 2: Spence Mansion’s residents, Iggy, Spencer and Olive, are back and decide to start a greeting card company for unhappy occasions because Iggy’s ex-girlfriend, Nadia, wants to re-kindle their relationship and he does not. When the buzz-off card doesn’t work, Nadia comes to town and plans to blackmail Iggy; she threatens to publish their love letters in a tell-all book. Add to this the drama of two escaped convicts who move to town to make some quick cash and you have an entertaining read that has lots of action and scheming. The amusing story is told in illustrated letters, newspaper clippings, and notes and cards sent among the characters. Lots of wordplay with names will keep clever readers entertained. This title of the series does not disappoint and would be a quick read for able students. less
