I have a patron who is looking for a novel, possibly either Romance or
Mystery, about a woman who has, or inherits, a coffee shop in a small town.
There is/was a murder in the shop and she discovers the ghost is still in
the shop. She works with the ghost to solve the murder. The book was
published either late in 2003 or 2004.
Any thoughts? Novelist and several romance databases didn't come up with any
hits that fit the description.

Ghost of a Chance
Yasmine Galenorn
Berkley
2003
After her husband left her for a young bimbo, Emerald O'Brien and her two
children left Seattle and moved to Chiqetaw where she opened up the Chintz
'n China Tea Room, a store that sells fine china and other objects
pertaining to tea. To bring in additional income she reads the tarot cards
and is known to the townsfolk as the resident witch. Emerald knew from an
early age that she had the Gift, seeing spirits and casting spells. One
night she is woken up to see a ghost hovering over her bed. Using
automatic writing, the spirit says she is Susan Mitchell and that her
husband killed her. The next day Em sees a picture of Susan in the paper
stating she died in an accident and her spouse has an airtight alibi and
doesn't inherit a dime of her considerable wealth so he has no motive. Em
risks her life to fighting an evil spirit that followed Susan into the
material plane and finding her killer so the woman can travel to the next
plane. This paranormal mystery has enough romance in it to keep readers of
three genres very happy. The spirits are the kind portrayed in the movie
"The Sixth Sense", the good, the good and the evil, all who have to pass
on to the next plane of existence with the heroine's help. The audience
will adore Emerald, a bright, shining and caring soul who wants to do
right by everybody and use her powers to make the world a better place.
Yasmine Galenorn is a bright new star in the mystery horizon.
