What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

In the story was I think an aunt who died and came back as a ghost, and on the cover the image was a girl walking away pulling wheeled luggage. (Ugh, I'm so sorry, but that's all I can remember.)

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Year read?

Mmm, maybe as early as 6 or 7 years ago, but I'm really not sure.

Do you remember why the aunt came back? Was it a mystery, romance, adventure, PNR where the ghost plays Cupid?

Also, I've moved this down to Unsolved where you will get many more looks.

A real long shot as the cover doesn't match, but I'll mention this book just in case you're interested. The Drifter by Richie Tankersley Cusick? (Btw, he wrote some novelizations of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.)

Here's one reviewer's description:
"Though Carolyn’s mother never expected to inherit Glanton House from long-lost Aunt Hazel, she wants to make the most of the opportunity. Planning to turn the creaky waterfront mansion into a hotel, she moves Carolyn down to the seashore. But this house has a nightmarish history.

As the story goes, Captain Glanton spent so long at sea that his wife, believing him dead, took a new lover. When her husband finally returned, her new love—a mysterious drifter—brutally murdered him, and she went mad with grief. It is said her ghost still haunts Glanton House, awaiting her husband’s return. Carolyn is terrified: Are the strange stains that cover the attic walls the marks of a ghost? And who is Joss Whitcomb, the icy-palmed handyman who wants a job at the new hotel? And why is no one sure what actually happened to Aunt Hazel? The answers to Carolyn’s questions lie in the sea, and in its chilling siren song."

Sounds interesting! I'm going to give that a read, but it's not the one I'm trying to remember.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Ugh, I'm so sorry, but I really can't remember too much more. I think it was more mystery/adventure than anything else, though.

Catelyn, are you still looking for this book?
