Trust Gilda Joyce, psychic investigator, to encounter a ghost even while she's an intern at the Spy Museum in Washington, D. C. I thoroughly enjoyed Gilda finding herself doing the same thing to children that she's hated having adults do to her while she was their counselor for spy camp week. (Yes, she's young, but she was the only volunteer when circumstances left the museum short one counselor.)

The ghost of Abraham Lincoln proves helpful when a woman's ghost seeks justice. The villain of this book is a true villain who deserves what he gets. ( )

This series just keeps getting better. I've read all but the last Gilda Joyce mystery and I haven't been disappointed yet. In this latest installment Gilda heads to Washington, DC to intern at the Spy Museum. While there Gilda is plagued by nightmares and feels that she is being drawn into a mystery involving some KGB artifacts that were donated to the museum. Great pacing and a plot that kept me guessing until the last page. It seems like Gilda grew up a bit in this volume and she seems to be more self aware. Jennifer Allison did a wonderful job researching this book and all the bits of DC history made the story even more captivating. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. 4 stars ( )

When Gilda Joyce goes to Washington D.C. to work for a spy museum she finds herself intertwined with a ghost, a mystery, and a heap of trouble. All year Gilda has been waiting to leave for her summer internship at tne international spy museum in Washington D.C. When there, she hopes to find a real mystery that she can solve. Strange things start happening at the museum. Projectors play unrecorded videos, all electricity suddenly goes out, and written on a wall is words that were never there before.
One evening Gilda is wandering around a cemetery looking for Abraham Lincoln's son's grave before he got moved somewhere else. She is there after the visit of Lincoln's ghost in her sleep. When leaving she trips over a rock, or so she thinks. With closer examination she finds that it is fake and has a note in it. A dead drop! She has just found what technique was used in the Cold War and thinks that there may be russians still giving away precious information.
Later Gilda decodes the message. She finds that there was an information trade and it leads to the reason why the ghost has been haunting the museum. She found the mole in the agency and was rewarded.
I think this book was wonderfully written and has a great mystery within it. I liked the way it left me hanging at the end of chapters. I would reccommend this book to anyone who likes mystery books where there is no one you can trust.
