Annie Pinkerton Boone Newcastle’s wedding night is one she wouldn’t soon forget. One moment she’s arriving in the practically barbarian Arizona Territory for a prearranged marriage—the next she’s a widow. The honeymoon has just begun when her newly acquired, much older husband breathes his last breath—leaving Annie without funds, and with his two elderly relatives to support. To make matters worse, the dead geezer has the unmitigated gall to take up residence in Annie’s body!

But, it turns out, the ghost of Jonas Newcastle makes himself useful by channeling vital information from the great beyond through Annie, and the somewhat bewildered widow quickly earns a reputation as a seer. She’s soon sharing Jonas’s psychic “hints” with the public and, no longer impoverished, she’s a local celebrity. However, even “Prophet Annie” can’t foresee all the raucous adventures and passionate fulfillment the future has in store for her…
