I'm currently reading In the Shadow of the Bull by Eleanor Kuhns. This book is the first in the Ancient Crete Mystery series.

Martis is not your typical fifteen year old girl in Ancient Crete. With no wish to ever marry or carry on the family weaving tradition, she's secretly training to be a bull leaper. Treated poorly by most of her family, she's unhappy that her favorite sister, Ange, is marrying a Barbarian and prays the wedding will be stopped. Her prayer is tragically answered as Ange goes into convulsions and dies as the wedding ceremony is about to begin. Believing she is to blame for her sister's death, Martis is shocked to have a vision. Arge has come to her as a shade saying she has been murdered. She then demands Martis find her killer else she haunt the family for nine generations. Martis vows to uncover the truth and hopes doing so will appease her sister and the Goddess.
