Bruce Coville’s Nina Tanleven series follows its young title character through four books of cozy paranormal mystery. The series started in 1987 with The Ghost in the Third Row, and the next two installments, The Ghost Wore Gray and The Ghost in the Big Brass Bed, arrived in quick succession over the following years.
After a long gap, Coville returned to the series with The Ghost Let Go in 2011, more than twenty years after the third book. Readers should start with The Ghost in the Third Row and work through in publication order, since Nina’s experiences and relationships carry forward from one book to the next.
