Gin Palace

''Spooky and hilarious'' – Mandasue Heller on The Accidental Medium

Set in Newcastle, Gin Palace rejoins Tanz, the Accidental Medium and an unwilling crime solver, as she grows accustomed to her rather unusual gift – communicating with the dead . . .

Tanz can talk to ghosts, although she’d prefer it if she couldn’t. Struggling to make ends meet as an actress and wholly unsuited to supply teaching, Tanz is only one bad day away from a meltdown. And the babbling ghosts aren’t helping.

So when Tanz is offered a paid acting gig in her hometown, things start to look up. But Newcastle’s dead won’t stay quiet for long, and soon Tanz becomes haunted with visions of a mysterious Gin Palace guarded by a sinister figure. As Tanz starts to piece together a terrible tragedy, it becomes clear there’s no limit to what the poltergeist will do to keep his secrets his own.

Unfortunately, he’s never met anyone quite like Tanz before . . .

Gin Palace is the second novel in the Accidental Medium series from Tracy Whitwell. It is followed by Cross Bones.
