An Unexpected Guest

Rate this book
Krewe Special Agent Jon Dickson and Kylie Connolly met under tough circumstances, but despite that, they discovered it seemed they were meant to be.

Now, moved into a condo in the D.C. area—easy shots for Jon getting to the Krewe offices and Kylie getting to Adam Harrison’s newly founded museum—they’re about to spend their first Thanksgiving together alone, sorry they won’t be with family, but happy to be together.

But an old friend from the academy calls Jon. He and his bride have just bought an historic house in Plymouth, Mass, but odd things are happening.

There’s a killer on the loose, and the old house abounds with ghost stories and the truth of what is happening must be discovered if Evan and Julie are going to stay in the dream home into which they had just invested all they had.
Thanksgiving is just a day away . . .

Jon doubts anything can be solved so quickly, even when he’s given special assistance from the dead.

But the first Thanksgiving did take place in Plymouth . . .

And they just might make discoveries that allow them to see just how very thankful they are.

They are in the house when the FBI agent sees 👀 movement. He rushes out and catches a man 🚹 who turns out too be a killer.

What’s the point of even publishing this book?

First, let me say that I like Heather Graham’s mysteries. In other of her books, I found them to be intriguing & suspenseful.

Unfortunately I didn’t find this to be the case with this book. While short, I believe this accomplished author could have developed a much more intriguing plot.

Instead she took time to include the mantra of mask wearing & “testing”. I submit, the comments on these two issues would have been better spent in further developing the suspense of the story.

As it was, I found this “book” lacking.

Krewe of Hunters agent, Jon Dickson, and his fiancee, Kylie Connolly, are called to a friend's house just before Thanksgiving because of odd things happening. There's also a killer on the loose and people missing.

This is a short story that features a Krewe agent and it was a fantastic read. This quick, enticing story was well-written with wonderful characters. I was pulled in from the start and kept hooked until the end. I highly recommend this book and the series.

An Unexpected Guest by Heather Graham

This short was a great short story. A great turkey story. And ghosts. You do not need anything more. Heather Graham is a great story writer. I have read over 200 of her books and loved everyone. I highly recommend all her books and every series she writes. Diana Romano

A heartwarming little Thanksgiving ghostly story.

Very interesting. Loved the story line. Nice characters and a sweet ending. The Krewe of Hunters series is my most favorite ghostly series. It's the first ghostly mysteries I cut my teeth on (so to speak). I'm all caught up on the short and full length mysteries now and am anxiously awaiting the next full length trilogy.

A fun Thanksgiving story

A newlywed is convinced that something very strange is happening in her new home. Her FBI husband asks a Krew member to come. Jon & Kylie arrive and things unfold rapidly. They all have much to be thankful for at the end.

A short story that gets right down to business.

You get enough about characters to make you like them. The heroes solve a serial killer case and manage to save 3 victims. In a very short story.

Cute, short story. Rolled my eyes a little at all the descriptions of people wearing masks in their own home and sitting six feet apart at dinner and all the discussions about Covid testing but otherwise enjoyable.

Very short story

I read to get away from the problems of the world. Mentioning masks, six feet apart and contagions are not what I want to read about.

Too short to really get engaged with the story. It's Thanksgiving but it's not with Jackson and Angela.
