The Ghosts of Thorwald Place

Received the audio through NetGalley, and I thought that Rachel Fulginiti did a great job with this. 
This was a unique story for me. I was for the most part pulled in by the cover, so I did not give the blurb a read. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it was not for the main character to be murdered in the very beginning of the story! I guess I thought with the book's title that it would be about her being haunted, not killed and becoming a ghost! (FYI, that is revealed in the blurb, so not me spoiling). So, it was a nice surprise and worked for me as a plot twist. 
The main character is believable and relatable. Her grief and paranoia has pushed her to become a complete agoraphobe inside her well secured apartment complex. Even though she completely cuts herself off from the outside, it's not enough to keep her safe. Nothing is. I didn't really feel like that was creepy while listening to it, but now that I'm writing it out it surely does. 
The author does a great job subverting a lot of the expectations around paranormal activity—what a ghost can do, and can not do, may surprise you a lot. It is much more along the lines of someone normal trapped in the in between of life and death, than it is like a malignant spirit in movies. 
The author weaves a very twisting story, where every character, and every interaction, may lead to another clue or even another mystery. My only gripe is I did feel like this went on to the point where the main character's story is a little less mysterious than I wished it would have been. Personally a 4/5* for me. 

TGoTP is an interesting paranormal mystery set totally in a high-class condo. The story is a real genre-bender – both creepy ghost story and mystery-thriller. It features murders (the MC is one of the victims), ghosts (the MC is one of those too), and a bunch of residents with mostly unsavory secret lives.
The story is very well written. I liked it, but not as much as I had expected to after reading glowing reviews by some folks whose opinions I trust. (Heh. Tastes aren't always congruent. Imagine that?

4.5 Rounded to 4

What would it be like to experience “life” on the other side? Instead of being the one who sees ghosts, how about a ghost who sees the living?

Meet Rachel. For too long after her husband's death she has been running, and death has finally caught up with her. One night is all it took. She let her guard down, and breathed her last.

Now she haunts the building where she was hiding away, trying to navigate the realm of the dead, skirting away from the other ghosts and trying to communicate with anyone she can. She begins to see that her neighbors aren't who they portray themselves to be, and notices there is more evil alive in her building than she knew.

When her husband's brother shows up and begins investigating her death, Rachel knows something doesn't add up. Can she solve her own murder from beyond the grave? How can she help her neighbors when she can't even talk to them? Will she be able to figure it out in time before someone else ends up dead?

Holy cow. This is a DEBUT?! I am so glad I decided to sign up for this tour. This is the perfect read for October or anytime of year for horror fans. The writing is fabulous and the mysteries and twists just kept on coming. What an absolutely fun, creepy, and rocking read! Definitely recommend this one.
