Claire (and Zach's) third official Ghost Laying mission sees them heading off to the small town of Creede where a young boy, Caden, nephew to old Mrs Flinton, is having a very tough time. He shares Claire's gift/curse of Ghost Seeing. And if you think it's a lot for a thirty-something woman to deal with, imagine being just a kid and not only dealing with ghosts, but parents who insist you're just "making it all up". *cough*idiots*cough*. Throw in some suspicious deaths that have Mrs Flinton frantic with worry and naturally Claire and Zach can't refuse. Especially Claire, since, you know, refusing to hunt ghosts will actually kill her.

l feel like this should be more than the third instalment of this series. I even did a double-take when I went to to check. So much has happened and the characters are so connected and feel so strongly about each other, you forget it's been a very small amount of time in real fictional life. Just three short weeks of ghostly shenannigans. I suppose that all must be a good thing; that I feel so comfortable with the characters. All down to the excellent writing, of course.

Speaking of, Owen really upped the steam factor this time! This book was very very sexy, with multiple love scenes. Never gratuitous or porno-y, just plentiful. It didn't interfere with the great ghost mystery, however, and there was great development for the characters emotionally, too.

A fab instalment. Bring on the next!

‘They’d become too close; he couldn’t lose her now without damage to himself, and he wouldn’t want it any other way. The four-letter “L” word hovered in his mind, but he shied away from forming it even mentally. Too soon. Too quickly. But he couldn’t lose Clare.’


Ghost Killer is yet another solid offering in the Ghost Seer series by Robin D. Owens. This time, Clare and Zach, with some help from ghost dog Enzo of course, are thrown into the hunt for a malevolent ghost intent on stealing spirits…and lives.

I’ve said it with each of the two previous novels in this series, but I’m saying it again here: Ms. Owens has put an intriguing spin on a ghost hunter plot, making it unique in comparison to a lot of paranormals out there. From the backstory of Clare’s family, to the fact that she can only see ghosts from a certain time period and geographic area, these are the details that draw me in to each book and captures my attention.
