This is the second book in the Ruby and Cordelia Mysteries series by Olivia Blacke, and this one was just as good maybe even better than the first one. I just wish someday Ruby could be able to actually see and hear Cordelia, but somehow they make communicating work out the best they can. Cordelia’s brother Ian visiting kinda opened a can of worms, and now I can’t wait for the next book!

My Goodreads review:
Death at the Door by Olivia Blacke
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I just love this unlikely pair of friends, Cordelia, a ghost who’s old enough to be Ruby’s mom and Ruby, a girl of twenty who’s just trying to make her living in the city and learning adulting the hard way. Cordelia’s younger brother made an appearance and might’ve accidentally stumbled on a way for Ruby to see her ghostly roommate, so now I can’t wait for the next book.
The murder mystery was a good one, and the two friends worked to figure out the killer with Cordelia working her ghostly magic to help others be able to know who the killer was as well. I loved the stuff she could do to people she didn’t like, like frying their phones or computers. Luckily Cordelia didn’t need to do that too often. After the scene with Ian at the end, I can’t wait to see what happens next.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book provided by Sr. Martin/Minotaur via NetGalley, and my opinions are my own.
