I just finished this book less than an hour ago but couldn't wait to write my review. This is the second book in the series, but in my opinion doesn't suffer from middle book syndrome. This book adds so much to the three main character's relationships with each other, and their banter is fun but not trying too hard to be funny. I love that there's a little bit of government intrigue and a lot of spook factor. Kiera continues to be a personal favorite FMC for me, as I feel like her actions and motivations make sense, she's not hard to root for. I do usually like more morally grey characters but this is such a fun, lighthearted read that I can't be mad that all three of the MC's are (so far) just good. The ghost that Kiera and the gang struggle with in this book is, in my opinion, much more interesting than the last one.
If you're looking for a quick (but well-written) series and like true crime, fantasy that doesn't make your brain hurt, and a little conspiracy this series is definitely for you.

After reading the first book in this series, I was dying to read the sequel. This was so good! As good if not better than the first in the series. I wholeheartedly recommend this series to anyone who likes a little ghostly creepiness along with their mysteries. The characters are very likable and are not over the top. I'm really hoping Darcy Coates comes out with a third book. I'm buying all of them in physical book form if she does. I loved this book!!
