Keep out of the shadows

For the most part I did enjoy this book. It was too confusing at the start being introduced to so many characters all at once and most of them were side characters away. In fact I had to go back to the beginning to try and get them all straight before the mystery got going. Also with time travel or portals I got lost keeping everybody striaght (or at least who was connected to each other) but once I decided to sit back and just enjoy it -without working out who the killer was I enjoyed the unusualness of the story a lot more. The characters were interesting from a paranormal perspective and I liked the main trio and ghostly grandma. Maybe if I had started with the first book it would have been easier to follow.
I am not sure the narrator helped, too many of the characters sounded the same and I found my mind wandered. Normally the narrator is entertaining but I think I couldn't switch from the last book I heard her read to these characters.
When a replica pirate ship arrives in town it brings three hung men swinging from the mast and a missing man. When her friends finance missing and a strange feel to the investigation Jessie knows the police won't be able to solve the murder in there usual way. Joined by her friends, the trio aided by the ghost of her Grandmother and her loyal dog lead to the basement of the tea room in search of the shadow lands, pirates and a missing man. Not everything is As it seems in the shadow lands and by entering the portal they head into an adventure that they might not come back from.
