Can ghosts haunt each other? That's the question facing Mercy Willow as she tries to sell a beautiful Cornish home. Unfortunately for the owner, his father's ghost appears to be loitering in the shadows, but another spectral presence is causing even more trouble.

As Mercy explores the history of the house, she discovers that the late Tom Bell was a man of secrets. He supposedly lived a grand and brave life, for which he was rewarded with many medals, but Mercy can tell that something's not quite right. What part of Tom's long career didn't become part of the legend? And what dark secret did he take to his grave?

By the time she starts to uncover the truth, Mercy might be too late to help. After all, how can she fix a mistake that was made almost a century ago?

The Haunting of the Ghost of Tom Bell is the tenth book in the 13-part Mercy Willow series, about an estate agent in deepest Cornwall who develops the unusual ability to communicate with ghosts. Readers are advised to start at the beginning of the series. This book ends on a cliffhanger.
