Description from the publisher:
Apple cider, bonfires, football, and—ghosts.
 
It’s homecoming weekend in Sugarland, Tennessee and ghost hunter Verity Long is tickled to see so many souls—living and dead—back in town to celebrate. But not all reunions are happy ones, and when Verity stumbles upon a dead body by the football field, it appears someone has already evened the score.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE HAUNTED HOMECOMING is the fourteenth book in the Southern Ghost Hunter series.  I’ve read half of them and loved ever one.
 
For many people, Sunday may be for the Lord but football is the religion of the rest of the week.  Homecoming is the Superbowl of every town and school.  Family reunions, picnics, and celebrations are planned around homecoming.  It is more than a day.  In Sugarland, it is an annual week-long event.  This year is extra special because a time capsule near the football field, that was supposed to be closed for one hundred years, is going to be opened early in order to upgrade the football field.  Even Verily’s mother is coming home via her mobile coach!
 
When the time capsule is opened, a young woman’s body is found.  This is the ghost hunt that Verity pursues in this story.  ‘Who’ was easily determined.  ‘Why’ was the greater mystery and it was suspenseful.  I loved every minute of following along in the pursuit of the “dastardly villain.”
 
Of course, there was fun and drama will Frankie and Molly.  I can’t miss my updates into their ongoing relationship and Frankie’s curmudgeonly attitude.  I love his personas.  He’s the uncle that pretends to not like kids being so noisy in front of the parents, while secretly whispering ideas for even more fun to the kids.
 
Having Verity’s mom visit was nice.  She’s a total gossip!  That drove Verity crazy.  She’s also a fashionista and made the cutest outfit for Lucy the skunk.  I hope we’ll be seeing care packages from the rode as mom sends more ensembles for her favorite striped model.
 
Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via NetGalley, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
