""You don't understand, Mercy," I said. "You're dead, you died--"
A howling shriek hit me right in the brain. The ghost charged me, her misty face distorted and distending as she put on speed, her empty eye sockets and mouth hole stretching to inhumane shapes."
Set in Savannah, Georgia, Ellie Jordan's job is anything but normal. Her job is to catch and remove unwanted ghosts, but also act as a private detective. Delving into the past of the family, house, property, and even items inside the home. Ellie surveys every family that contacts her to see if there is a true haunting. In this story Ellie surveys a family that contacted her to deal with a restless presence in their historical mansion that is undergoing construction. Ellie is joined by her unwanted coworkers- Stacey and Jacob, a psychic. The team manages to get one ghost out of the house, the one that was targeting the young daughter, only to discover there were many many more dangerous ghosts in the mansion.
I found this entire book and the characters to be absolutely lovable and so differently. It was a joy reading this, and honestly it was really spooky. Ellie is a brave, strong headed, independent woman who has a lot to prove and is eager to save those who can't save themselves. All the characters are unique and have their own quirks and I think that is what will male them a great team going forward.
I was on a patient 1:1 where I was able to read and I devoured this book shortly into my 12 hour shift. Shamelessly I admit I read all three books that are bundled in the same 12 hour shift.
