Ghost in the Polka Dot Bikini

The book balances spooky elements with lighthearted fun, which is quite unique. I wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or classic cozy tropes.

The sense of community really came through, but I wondered if that also limited the scope of the clues and suspects. Was that intentional or just a natural outcome?

The ghost's antics added a lot of humor and heart to the story. I'm curious whether this was based on a real ghost story or just a fun character choice.
