Gilda Joyce : the bones of the holyWhen Gilda's mother flies to Florida with a friend for the weekend, Gilda becomes suspicious when she finds all new clothes tucked into her mother's suitcase.  Upon her Mother's return, Gilda finds a diamond ring tucked away into her mother's luggage.  Curious, she calls the number on the jewelry box and finds out that her mother is engaged to be married - on the day after Halloween.

When Gilda and her mother show up in St. Augustine, Gilda begins getting strange vibrations from the house.  Not only is she concerned about her mother getting married so quickly, she is concerned about the past history of the man her mother will be marrying, and the history of his being left at the altar by his "Charlotte".

When Gilda begins to see the ghost of a young woman, wearing a filmy white dress who matches the description of Charlotte, she becomes concerned that Charlotte did not leave her fiance at the altar, but that she is dead.

Can Gilda convince her mother that she is making a mistake while there is still time?
Who is the mysterious ghost who wanders around the house, and what is she trying to tell Gilda?
Find out in "Bones of the Holy" a Gilda Joyce mystery.
