About this book

1856 Texas is a land of brutal heat and buried secrets, but for thirty-seven-year-old governess Phebe Whiteside, the danger hiding within the walls of Queens Court Acres is far more chilling than the frontier itself. Upon arriving at the stately mansion to start anew, Phebe discovers she is not alone. The estate is haunted by the restless spirit of Edmund McAdams, a man murdered in his prime whose tragic death remains a stain on the property’s history.

Driven by a mix of empathy and an insatiable need for the truth, Phebe begins a perilous quest to grant Edmund peace. As she peels back the layers of deception surrounding his demise, she uncovers a forbidden love that transcends the veil of death. This haunting paranormal mystery masterfully weaves a second-chance romance into a high-stakes whodunnit, where the line between the living and the dead blurs with every revelation.

Patty Wiseman delivers a gripping tale where everyone has something to hide, and at least one person is willing to kill to keep it that way. If you enjoy atmospheric historical fiction paired with spectral intrigue and a slow-burn connection that defies time, this story will keep you guessing until the final page.

Fascinating Story

November 4, 2018

This historical novel with a paranormal-whodunnit twist was well-written and had numerous fascinating plot entanglements. The characters were well-drawn and vivid with enough suspense in the story action to keep you turning the pages, wondering who did what and how it would turn out. I loved the gutsy protagonist, Phebe, whose curiosity was insatiable and tended to get her into trouble as she tried to figure out the secrets behind the Powell family, by whom she'd been hired as a governess for...

I loved this book!

I just finished reading Somewhere Between and was very impressed with the book and the author. Patty has a way of drawing the reader in and making them want to get to know each and every character personally. I ordered the book on kindle and literally could not put it down. I could not wait to turn each page to see what the author had in store for me next. It was absolutely my kind of book - a murder mystery/romance set in my favorite time period - the Victorian era. About halfway through the...

Paranormal Lite

July 10, 2019

This is a nice little paranormal/mystery. I think I'd like to have seen the main character, Phebe, as a nanny/detective. She has the curiosity and logical thinking which I'd love to see her using in multiple settings. Phebe: Nanny Detective, the series. This isn't a lost opportunity for Patty Wiseman. She could create a new character with the personality, courage, and forthright personality going from home to home where other nannies fear to tread. I could really see her as almost a freelance...

Strong Female Lead

August 22, 2019

I enjoyed \"Somewhere Between\" by Patty Wiseman. Phebe's intelligence, curiosity, and bravery while investigating the family mystery and ghost in the attic kept me reading. Filled with multi-dimensional, strong characters, this story flowed well, and the ending surprised. The love match at the end, however, felt rushed, but it provided a happy note for the finale. )

Left me smiling and satisfied

Patty Wiseman’s Somewhere Between is a fantastic read. I tend to read up to three books at once in a piecemeal fashion, as my time for reading is limited and my mood for genre changes frequently. That’s how I started reading Somewhere Between, but found I was letting the other books I’d started sit while I concentrated on Patty’s novel. It was a pleasant surprise as it isn’t a genre I typically read. But it was a very intriguing mystery that kept me turning the page, eager for the answers to be...
