Reviews"This book reads like a good episode of your favorite ghost-hunting show. Gibson is clearly a believer, but manages to maintain a realistic feel and avoid any sensationalization or melodrama that would push the story over the edge. Teens who watch Ghost Whisperer or Haunting Evidence, who flock to everything Buffy, or who like their ghosts to feel real (with a hint of humor and romance) will eat this up and eagerly await the next installment in the Ghost Huntress series."-- Booklist "This trilogy is well put together and attractively packaged--fast-paced, twisty plot."--VOYA, 3Q4P, "This book reads like a good episode of your favorite ghost-hunting show.

For centuries, individuals have been trying to prove the existence of ghosts. But without hard evidence, it's been difficult to make the case.
