Tuesday Mooney Talks To Ghosts

A dying billionaire sends one woman and a cast of dreamers and rivals on a citywide treasure hunt in this irresistible novel by the author of *Bellweather Rhapsody*. Tuesday Mooney is a loner. She keeps to herself, begrudgingly socializes, and spends much of her time watching old *Twin Peaks* and *X-Files* DVDs. But when Vincent Pryce, Boston’s most eccentric billionaire, dies, leaving behind an epic treasure hunt through the city with clues inspired by his hero Edgar Allan Poe, Tuesday’s real life adventure begins. Puzzle-loving Tuesday searches for clue after clue, joined by a ragtag crew: a wisecracking friend, an adoring teen neighbor, and a handsome, cagey young heir. The hunt tests their mettle, and with other teams from around the city also vying for the promised prize—a share of Pryce’s immense wealth—they must move quickly. Pryce’s clues can’t be cracked with sharp wit alone; the searchers must summon the courage to face painful ghosts from their pasts (some more vividly than others), and discover their most guarded desires and dreams. A deliciously funny ode to imagination, overflowing with love letters to art—from *The Westing Game* to Madonna to the Knights of the Round Table—*Tuesday Mooney Talks to Ghosts* is the perfect read for thrill seekers, wanderers, word lovers, and anyone looking for an escape to the extraordinary.
