Michelangelo’s Ghost is the first book I’ve read from Gigi Pandian’s Jaya Jones Treasure Hunt Mystery Series. Jaya is an engaging protagonist with lots of spirit, eclectic tastes, and passion. She has two love interests in this volume, but the mystery takes center stage. After the death of her former professor, Jaya is off to Italy chasing ghosts, centuries-old rumors, and a priceless treasure.

I did see some of the twists coming ahead of time, but they were still well-executed and kept me engaged throughout. I had no trouble reading it as a standalone mystery even though it’s my first dip into the series.

I’m not crazy, Jaya. I’m not. This time, the ghost is real.
