Ghostly Echoes: A Jackaby Novel

by William Ritter

Abigail Rook and her eccentric employer, R. F. Jackaby, dive into the cold case, starting with a search for Jenny's fiance, who went missing the night she died. But when a new, gruesome murder closely mirrors the events of ten years prior, Abigail and Jackaby realise that Jenny's case isn't so cold after all, and her killer may be far more dangerous than they suspected. Fantasy and folklore mix with mad science as Abigail's race to unravel the mystery leads her across the cold cobblestones of nineteenth-century New England, down to the mythical underworld, and deep into her colleagues' grim histories to battle the most deadly foe she has ever faced.

Previous 2 books was a build up to this one. And all of them are building up to the 4th one. Can't wait to see where the story ends.
Also Jenny! My favorite character finally blossomed in full force!

This is the sort of book that is just compulsively readable - the characters are fun and progress each book in a variety of ways, and the story line just gets better as it begins to head towards the eventual end. This series is one that I reach for when I just want brain candy - something enjoyable that keeps me turning the pages.

Magnificent characters and a cohesive story gets readers ready for the next book. The best book yet. Review to come.

Short and Sweet Review

Did you read it yet? My review for Book #2 told you to trust me and read it....Ok well you are totally missing out. This book once again will not have spoilers and you will be ok to read if you haven't read the others because I am just going to gush for a paragraph or two...promise.

Well when you think it couldn't get any better...it does. This book totally threw me and not only do you get more character build you get some serious back story that I have been DYING to know about. I am so loving Jackaby, he cracks me up. Abigail really shines in this book and shows what she is willing to do for her friends. I just loved every moment and every word. I can't get enough of this series and am so looking forward to the next book. This is one series I know I will feel a loss when it comes to an end. Lets hope that is not any time soon.

Once again, I can't recommend this series or book enough. I love the characters, this one had tons of twists and turns and I love the character build and back story. You must, must, must, read it! TRUST ME!!!! Highly recommend but you knew I would say that already!

Thanks for stopping by to check out my review.

Have a great day and Happy Reading!
