The Christmas Spirits on Tradd Street

The Christmas spirit is overtaking Tradd Street with a vengeance in this festive novel in the New York Times bestselling series by Karen White.Melanie Trenholm should be anticipating Christmas with nothing but joy-after all, it's only the second Christmas she and her husband, Jack, will celebrate with their twin toddlers. But the ongoing excavation of the centuries-old cistern in the garden of her historic Tradd Street home has been a huge millstone, both financially and aesthetically. Local students are thrilled by the possibility of unearthing more Colonial-era artifacts at the cistern, but Melanie is concerned by the ghosts connected to it that have suddenly invaded her life and her house-and at least one of them is definitely not filled with holiday cheer….And these relics aren't the only precious artifacts for which people are searching. A past adversary is convinced there is a long-lost Revolutionary War treasure buried somewhere on the property Melanie inherited-untold riches rumored to have been brought over from France by the Marquis de Lafayette himself and intended to help the Colonial war effort. It's a treasure fit for a king, and there have been whispers throughout history that many have already killed-and died-for it. And now someone will stop at nothing to possess it-even if it means destroying everything Melanie and Jack hold dear.Story Locale: Charleston, SCSeries Overview: Southern fiction with a paranormal twist set among Charleston's historic homes and featuring psychic Realtor Melanie Middleton-Trenholm.
