The Gaslighting Ghosts

Kelsey Bonner thought she had found the perfect man, even if he was a grieving widower.For nine months, kindergarten teacher Kelsey has patiently loved Xander Wiggs, a luxury real estate agent who claims his beloved wife, Nita, tragically drowned in a jet ski accident off the coast of Ensenada. Kelsey cooks him dinner on his fake grief anniversaries, tiptoes around his emotional scar tissue, and waits for him to heal.But when Kelsey attends a charity gala to quietly honor Nita's memory, she makes a jaw-dropping discovery: Nita isn't a plaque on a wall. She is very much alive, running a massive ocean conservation charity, and still legally married to Xander.Instead of quietly walking away, Kelsey decides to use her infinite kindergarten teacher patience for something far more satisfying: absolute revenge. Teaming up with the brilliant and fiercely competent Nita, the two women launch a meticulously planned operation to convince the cowardly Xander that he is being haunted by his "dead" wife's angry spirit. Utilizing hacked smart-home thermostats, hidden Bluetooth speakers, muddy footprints, and a semi-retired character actress posing as a psychic medium, Kelsey and Nita turn Xander's web of lies into a living, breathing nightmare.The Gaslighting Ghosts is a sharp, laugh-out-loud revenge comedy about unexpected female friendship, the audacity of lying men, and the terrifying power of an organized woman with a shared drive.
