The Little Shop of Found Things

The Little Shop of Found Things by Paula Brackston,
Xanthe and her mother acquire an antique shop in Marlborough, a peculiar place ideal for starting anew. Xanthe possesses an extraordinary gift; she can hear objects “speak” to her, learning their histories and calming restless spirits. The property they purchased harbors its own ghost, which Xanthe soon discovers. This spirit endangers her mother, compelling Xanthe to act in order to protect her.
