Only a Shadow by Iona Morrison

Trouble rears its head once again in Blue Cove and dashes straight into Jessie's store in the person of a battered young woman fleeing her abusive spouse. Jessie finds herself pulled into another case as a body is discovered in the church dumpster, and the dead woman's ghost takes up a vigil in Jessie's place of business.

Is the dead woman connected to the frightened and battered girl who took refuge in the store? Matt and Jessie's search for the killer leads them to their victim's family, members of a strange religious group that lives off the grid outside of town. Add to the mix a crypt in the woods on a foggy night, Jessie's abduction, a couple of angry and abusive husbands, and the resident ghost, and they will have their hands full solving this crime.

Will Matt and Jessie's love for each other keep them grounded until justice can be served?
