Darkhouse by Karina Halle

Darkhouse (Experiment in Terror, #1)

by Karina Halle

Perry Palomino is not what you would call 'ordinary'. For one thing, there's her past which she likes to pretend never happened, and then there's the fact that she sees ghosts. Luckily for her, that all comes in handy when she stumbles across Dex Foray, an eccentric producer for an upcoming web cast on ghost hunters. Even though the show's budget is non-existent and Dex himself is a maddening enigma, Perry is instantly drawn into a world that both threatens her life and seduces her with a sense of importance. Her uncle's haunted lighthouse provides the perfect catalyst and back drop for a horrific mystery that unravels the threads of Perry's fragile sanity and causes her to fall for a man, who, like the most dangerous of ghosts, may not be all that he seems.

Liked it, definitely want to continue the series ... but didn't love this one.

Edit 1/2/13 - Way better the second time around. A lot less confused and more heart wrenching when you know what's coming.

Edit 1/14/18 - finished the audio because it was selected as this month's book for the work book club. I agree with 2013 me. And the audio almost makes it like a new book. still hurts my heart a bit though. Dammit Derry, get your shit together sooner this time around, K?
