First of all, teenaged girls in 2008 dont use the word swell or even swellest, which isnt even a word, even if they are a PK (Pastors Kid).

The dearly departed Bailey Ruth Raeburn has been asked to join the Department of Good Intentions, her role, to return to earth in spirit form, being called a ghost is against regulations, and help out those in need. Sounds easy, that is if there werent all those silly little precepts about when you can appear in human form and who you can scare the be-gee-bees out of.

Bailey pops in just in time to see the body of the towns bad guy Daryl Murdock sprawled dead on the back porch of the rectory and the PW (Pastors Wife) trying to figure out what to do it.

What ensues is a very good who done it with a cast of characters that all look guilty from afar, that is until Baily goes around Wiggins (her heavenly supervisor) wishes and starts to investigate the facts.

Great start to a new series.
