For fans of Stranger Things comes a suspenseful YA mystery about a missing kid, a girl who can see ghosts, and a horrifying crime only four outcasts have the power to stop.
What if the only person who could help you find your missing brother was
dead?
Nothing is as important to sixteen-year-old Shiloh Oleson as her little brother
Max. So when the six-year-old goes missing without a trace, a heartbroken
Shiloh refuses to believe nothing can be done and sets out to find him.
When one of Shiloh’s classmates says she knows where Max is, Shiloh hesitates
to believe her. Francesca is creepy. She says she can see ghosts, but everyone
knows ghosts aren’t real … right?
But Francesca says that Max is going to be murdered.
And a ghost told her where he is.
As the line between the dead and living begins to blur, Shiloh starts to think
Francesca might not be as crazy as she believed. One thing is becoming clear.
Someone has gruesome plans for Max, and Shiloh must confront her worst
nightmares to find him before it’s too late.

Book Trailer:
Suspense, ghosts, friendship, murder, oh my! This young adult book had everything. It had your typical romance, and your not so typical kidnapping. Shiloh's brother has recently been kidnapped by a mystery person. But, Francesca, "the weird girl" approaches Shiloh and tells her that she can help get her brother back, but there's a catch. She has to involve the ghosts that Shiloh doesn't believe in. Shiloh, Francesca, Miles and Jonah form an unlikely group as they all band together to find Shiloh's missing brother.
This book has multiple layers. It isn't just a ghost mystery, it's also a coming of age tale. Please check your trigger warnings, because Shiloh's life is rough. Her father is the sheriff, but he is also an abusive alcoholic. Shiloh grows within this book, and I really enjoyed that aspect. She learns to stand up for herself, and she's able to say when enough is enough. Also, the relationship between her and her brother is very heartfelt. I loved that all of the characters had multiple layers, and they weren't always who they appeared to be from the start.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book. This mystery was fantastic, and the characters were all wonderful. The characters were probably my favorite part of this story, besides the friendly ghosts. I really loved how they were helpful for the most part. I would recommend this to anyone that enjoys character development and suspense. But, if you have triggers please check them. This is not a standalone, and there is a medium cliffhanger. So, also keep that in mind. Otherwise, please check this book out!
