Publisher's summary
Mary O’Reilly Alden froze and stared into the living room. She could swear that something moved in there. She walked around the counter, toward the living room, and heard a soft giggle. It sounded like a child’s voice, but there was something about it that sent chills down her spine.
“Who’s there?” she asked, walking to the entrance of the room. The giggle repeated, this time clearer. “I don’t find this funny at all,” she replied firmly, trying not to show her fear. “Now, if you want my help, you will show yourself.”She looked around and saw the branches of the Christmas tree shake.
She started to step forward, but a sudden grip of instinctual fear held her back. The giggle repeated, and then the voice called out, “Mary. Mary. I’ve found you.” Mary gripped the edge of the couch, her knees weakening beneath her. It was the voice from the asylum, and it was in her home.
The spirit from the asylum has followed Mary O’Reilly home for the holidays. But there are no chestnuts roasting on the open fires he’s creating. With Rosie and Stanley in danger, will Mary and company be able to assure themselves of a Merry Christmas, or will things go terribly, terribly wrong?

Story
Dying is what changed Mary O'Reilly's life. Well, actually, coming back from the dead and having the ability to communicate with ghosts is really what did it. Now, a private investigator in rural Freeport, Illinois, Mary's trying to learn how to incorporate her experience as a Chicago cop and new-found talent into a real job. Her challenge is to solve the mysteries, get real evidence (a ghost's word just doesn't hold up in court), and be sure the folks in town, especially the handsome new police chief, don't think she's nuts.

Story
Detective Sean O'Reilly is called in to interrogate a young boy who is the only witness to a massacre during a gang war. The child's story is too far-fetched for most of the Chicago Police Force to believe - claims of an army of other-worldly creatures who attacked and dismembered the rival gangs. But Sean O'Reilly believes him, because he's seen them himself. An encounter he had as a boy in a dark forest in Ireland did not just give him nightmares, but changed his entire life.

Mary floated across the room, shaking her hands in frustration. Finally, she turned back to Mike. “When will the men in my life realize that no one is responsible for watching over me?” she asked sadly. “I am a grown woman. I am a former police officer. I am not some hot-house flower that can’t handle my own life and my own safety.” Victoria sighed loudly and rolled her eyes.

Over 100 years ago, a group of witches made their way from New England to Whitewater, Wisconsin, known as Second Salem. Others also made their way to the city and, through their ignorance, unleashed an evil entity. Three sisters, the Willoughby Witches, created an incantation strong enough to ensnare the demon. Lord Henry McDermott, college professor, anthropologist, and archaeologist, has yearned to learn more about the legend of the Willoughby Witches. Taking the summer off to research the folklore, Henry discovers that there is more waiting for him in Whitewater than just a story.

change in narrator
hmmm. I love the series, I have read it a couple of times and am now listening. I was thrown for a loop when the voice changed. she was ok,but a of the characters were now different. I would encourage, if possible, to keep the same person through out the entire series!!

Not a fan of Narrator changes
Great Mary O'Reilly mystery. But not a fan of the new Narrator. 18 books one Narrator, now the last two are different.

narration change
Emily sounds like a fine narrator, but after 18 books by Erin I think I have to go back to the ebook to finish. Still a great series. I was only going to relisten to book 1 to kill some time until my next credits were available. Hooked, just like the first time, one leads to two, leads to three. You get the picture, hard to stop after just one. Love the discounts you get with buying both ebook and audible, never know when you have to read in public and I'm not fond of earbuds.
Thanks Terri for a few more hours of entertainment. that can be repeated over and over.

Narrator change at book 19?.
The tone is so different and harsh. Listening to this series from the original narrator made you feel like you were visiting with an old friend. Book 18 was my last purchase of this series. I will be returning this book.
