This All Hallows' Eve, partners and home renovation hosts Peter Penwell and JP Broadway try not to flip when their newest fixer-upper is rumored to be a haunted house . . .
Kicking off season three of their hit reality TV show Domestic Partners is a home renovation project with an irresistible hook. Woods Hall is a lavish 1913 manor home in the Detroit suburb of Pleasant Woods, once belonging to the town's founding family. It also comes with its own ghost.
Twenty-five years ago during a Halloween night party, automotive heiress and beauty queen Emma Wheeler-Woods, wearing a white Princess Diana wedding gown as a costume, fell from a third-floor balcony to her death. Or was she pushed?
Fiona Forrest recently inherited the home after learning she was Emma's daughter, and she and her fiancé have hired the Domestic Partners to restore the family property to its original splendor. But ghostly sightings, injured crew, secret passageways, locked rooms, and sabotage beg the question: Is the place actually haunted? And perhaps more practically, was Fiona's mother murdered?
Hustling to have work finished in time to shoot the finale on Halloween—the anniversary of Emma's mysterious death—do Peter and JP have a ghost of a chance of also solving a cold case from a quarter of a century ago before someone else takes a fall?

      When a young woman in a wedding dress plunges from a balcony to her death, is it a tragic accident or murder? Peter Penwell and JP Broadway, the stars of the reality TV showDomestic Partners, are bringing their skills to Woods Hall, a new project in the Detroit suburb of Pleasant Woods. Once a beautiful family home, the house has fallen into disrepair, and rumors abound that it's haunted. Twenty-five years earlier, the owner's bride, young Emma Wheeler-Woods, died by falling off a balcony while wearing a replica of Princess Diana's wedding gown during a Halloween party. While the legal status of Emma's death has never been determined, everyone says her spirit hasn't left the house since that fateful night. Peter and JP are totally up for the challenge when Fiona Forrest, who's just inherited Woods Hall, hires them to bring the house back to its former grandeur. The project offers the perfect combination of fix-it-up and potential mystery, just the way Peter and JP like. As the projects get underway, though, a series of events makes the two men unsure of whether the house is really haunted or they're just having really bad luck. The Domestic Partners, who are also lowercase domestic partners, decide they need to find the truth about Emma even if it means doing some amateur detective work. A series of detours, like a potential new pet, serve as both additions to and distractions from the main event. A fun read that might have been stronger if it had been all mystery or all something else.
