Lonely in a new area, Tiffany asks Aunt Minnie to stop by for a visit.  Minnie, on the road in her RV just north in Spokane and hoping to head south to warmer climates for the winter, adjusts her travel plans and heads south to the small city of Clarkston, Washington, at the confluence of the Snake and Clearwater Rivers.  Finding a wonderful RV site with a panoramic view of the Snake River, Minnie settles in for a short, relaxing visit with her niece. Binoculars in hand, she admires the scenery—from the golden hills across the river to the fishermen trolling in boats. The beauty of the scene is marred though, when one fisherman disappears from his boat right before her eyes.  Peregrine Ebenezer (Ben) Alvord, Minnie's nineteenth-century ghost traveling companion, can do nothing to save the man from drowning. In fact, he can't even find him. But search and rescue teams do finally locate poor Jim Olson, only to discover that he didn't die by drowning.  Everyone liked Jim Olson, everyone except the person who killed him. Minnie vows to stay out of this murder investigation, but she feels responsible since she was the last person to see him alive. Besides the killer, that is.Each story in the series can stand alone, but to avoid extensive repetition of the backstory, the books would be best read in order.
