⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Was I hooked by that book? Yes. Exciting action, decades-old mysteries that need solving, and cheeky ghosts, what more do you need?

Verity’s quest to save her friend takes her to a long-abandoned part of Sugarland where rockabilly ghosts rule.

MY THOUGHTS

Molly made Frankie into a better man, without doubt, but deep in his black little heart he is all gangster and in this book he got the chance to express that part of himself to the fullest. I always wish there was more of Ellis, I just love him. No matter how bizarre Verity’s life gets, their relationship is the one constant that we can all rely on. Verity picked up a very unlikely ally, which made for super entertaining reading.

The story played out well-paced, with a plethora of smaller plots that all came together really well without causing confusion. The author does an excellent job of connecting the present day to the past, and the good and bad guys for both eras.

This series is for you if you like ghosts, solving mysteries and crimes, and humour, all with a steady-as-a-rock relationship. This book can be read on its own, but I think reading the series in order will make more sense. The characters and their relationships change and grow over time and you don’t want to miss that.
