Lockwood & Co

by Jonathan Stroud

"You'll want to leave the lights on...Stroud is a genius". (Rick Riordan). When the dead come back to haunt the living, Lockwood & Co. step in...For more than fifty years, the country has been affected by a horrifying epidemic of ghosts. A number of Psychic Investigations Agencies have sprung up to destroy the dangerous apparitions. Lucy Carlyle, a talented young agent, arrives in London hoping for a notable career. Instead she finds herself joining the smallest most ramshackle agency in the city, run by the charismatic Anthony Lockwood. When one of their cases goes horribly wrong, Lockwood & Co. have one last chance of redemption. Unfortunately this involves spending the night in one of the most haunted houses in England, and trying to escape alive. Set in a city stalked by spectres, The Screaming Staircase is the first in a chilling new series full of suspense, humour and truly terrifying ghosts. Your nights will never be the same again...

По ощущениям это было что то типа "мне лет 15 и я ночью решила устроить марафон просмотра битвы экстрасенсов", только круче. Вообще я довольно восприимчива к таким вещам, поэтому мне было местами прям реально стрёмно читать) Но какой же это был кайф!
