When Violet and her mother are invited to a country house for a series of séances, Violet finds that she can actually see and talk to ghosts and is pulled into a murder mystery of the sister of one of the guests. When Violet's mother gets discovered, Violet must step up and replace her. On top of all that, Violet has fallen for her long time companion, Colin. Can Violet hold séances, solve a murder, help a ghost find peace and take control of her love for Colin?

Opinion: 

Haunting Violet is a story that has you on the edge of your seat. It's a story with romance, mystery and the super-natural. I liked the book a lot, it's the kind of book that keeps you up all night reading. There was a bit of violence but nothing terribly gruesome. I frankly think there was a little bit too much going on at some parts, it was a bit confusing, but otherwise the characters were very authentic for the time period that the story was set in, and I really like the plot. I think all readers will enjoy Haunting Violet.
