    About this audiobook

    Ever since her first ghostly sighting, Abby Kimball has been trying to unravel the mystery of her newly discovered ability. So when she sees the apparition of a Revolutionary War soldier in the middle of the town green-just days before the annual Patriot's Day celebration, no less-she's determined to figure out her connection to the man.

    The ethereal soldier is not the only mystery in Abby's life. She's also trying to sort out her connection to Ned Newhall, the man who shares her ability and is playing a more serious romantic role in her life every day. But with plans for the celebration ramping up and her job becoming more chaotic by the minute, Abby's finding it hard to catch her breath, much less come to grips with all the new turns her life has taken.

    And when another eerie episode is followed by the appearance of a very curious young girl who seems wise beyond her years, Abby discovers she and Ned may have only scratched the surface of their special ability, and that Ned may hold the biggest surprise yet.

      I really enjoyed this book. I think perhaps I would have caught on quicker if I had read the preceding novel first, but this works well as a stand alone book.Abby finds herself in a new situation - new boyfriend, and still getting used to calling him that, new job, still getting to know her boss, and living only a few months in a new city, with the need to find a new place to live being forced upon her in the very near future. Also new to Abby is that fact that she sees ghosts.The ghosts she sees all seem to be her ancestors. Her boyfriend, Ned, sees ghosts as well. Some they can both see, some only one of them sees. Oh - and should I mention that when she and her boyfrined have skin to skin contact - "tingles" happen.Life gets complicated not only as Abby and Ned try to figure out their ghostly connections, but as they try to discover their geneology and if other members of their family have similar abilities they won't talk about.Then there is Ellie, Abby's boss's daughter, who intuitively knows that Abby and Ned share her ability to see dead people. Abby's boss is not pleased at all with this turn of events.I enjoyed the historical aspects of the story and learning more about Patriot's Day.I was given a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.I would love to read more in this series.

      4 STARS Wow! All of a sudden seeing ghosts would be hard to handle, especially if you could not tell them apart. That is what Abby is dealing with the last six months, plus living in a new place, new job and even a new guy. Lots of drama, new discoveries, history and love made it hard to put the book down. I learned a lot more of the history that I should have known in a interesting way. I had never heard of Patriot's Day before. Abby Kimball has had to deal with a lot of changes in her life the past year. She is trying to figure out who the dead people she sees were. She is dating Ned. House sitting and works for a museum. Ned Newhall has lots of secrets about him. He used to see a lot of the dead but till Abby he had thought it he grew out of it. Ned has never told anyone about the people he saw. I was drawn into the drama right off from the beginning and want more of Abby and Ned. The setting for this book is Concord, MASS. This is a clean read. I want to read more of Sheila Connolly's work. This is the first of her books I have read I think but not the last one. I was given this ebook to read from Net Galley and Beyond the Page Publishing. In return I agreed to give honest review of Seeing the Dead.
