With all her experience, she’ll revive floundering Six-Packs! Unfortunately, Celeste soon discovers that the gym IS haunted by a feisty ghost named Lennie.

Lennie approaches Celeste and tells her he must solve five crimes before he can enter the next world to atone for being a terrible person in life. At first, Celeste ignores Lennie’s badgering ways. But then one of the gym members suffers a mysterious death—and only Lennie seems to know who’s behind it. Celeste has no choice but to help Lennie solve his first crime or it’s over for Six-Packs, leaving not only Celeste broke, but her employees without a job.
