Celeste Jones always dreamed of becoming a gym owner. So, when the opportunity arises to buy Six-Packs for peanuts, sheβs thrilled. The previous owner claims the place is haunted, but that doesnβt bother Celeste one bitβshe doesnβt believe in ghosts. Hell-ooo! WhatΒ normalΒ person does? With all her experience, sheβll revive floundering Six-Packs!
Unfortunately, Celeste soon discovers that the gym IS haunted by a feisty ghost named Lennie. Lennie used to own the building that houses Six-Packs. Lennie approaches Celeste and tells her he must solve five crimes before he can enter the next world to atone for being a terrible person in life (for one, he was a slum lord).
At first, Celeste ignores Lennieβs badgering ways. But then one of the gym members suffers a mysterious deathβand only Lennie seems to know whoβs behind it. Celeste has no choice but to help Lennie solve his first crime or itβs over for Six-Packs, leaving not only Celeste broke, but her employees without a job.
NOTE:Β Haunted Hardbodies is a humorous cozy murder mystery for people who like to laugh. If you're looking for a traditional, serious mystery, this is not it:)
