Fortune Favors the Dead

This was a fun one, I enjoyed it. A coworker recommended it, since she knows how much I love noir and mysteries. 

Willowjean (Will) Parker ran away from her life in a circus and ends up saving the life of a famous female detective named Lillian Pentecost. Lillian sees potential in Will and takes her on as an apprentice. 

Twins Rebecca and Randall Collins along with their Uncle Wallace show up with a case. The twins' mother, Abigail, died in a fire at their home Halloween night, and Rebecca thinks the ghost of their father, who committed suicide a few years earlier, had a part in it. 

There were plenty of suspects. I did guess the ending before it was revealed (barely), but it was a good resolution.
