Meet the operatives of the Carnacki Institute-JC Chance: the team leader, brave, charming, and almost unbearably arrogant; Melody Chambers: the science geek who keeps the antisupernatural equipment running; and Happy Jack Palmer: the terminally gloomy telepath. Their mission: Do Something About Ghosts. Lay them to rest, send them packing, or just kick their nasty ectoplasmic arses. In a quiet London suburb, four university students participating in an experiment inside a reputed haunted house hold a sEance that goes terribly wrong. What-or who-ever they summoned has taken their minds away, leaving them empty shells. Enter the Ghost Finders, ready to confront an enraged poltergeist for the students' very souls. All in a day's work-except the team doesn't know that in another part of the city, a different entity has also breached the threshold between worlds. And this time what is at stake is not four lives-but the very existence of all humanity.

“When it comes to supernatural mysteries, the British solve them them with style—and black humor. The Ghostfinders are called upon when undead voices keep calling a local radio station, warning about some undefined approaching evil. Narrator Tim Gerard Reynolds shines with male voices—particularly that of a depressed telepath named ‘Happy’ who speaks in a slow, heavy Cockney accent. The Ghostfinders’ leader sports an urbane North London accent and a crisp, unruffled tone as he attempts to handle the unexplainable…Reynolds’s sharp delivery of numerous cutting remarks is enjoyable.”

“Green comes through with more than enough gore, wit, and mild suspense to satisfy series fans.”
— Publishers Weekly“Fascinating…Fans will delight in the evolution of these surprisingly complex and sympathetic characters, but new readers will have no issues falling into this quick, smart escapade and reveling in the eerie and unpredictable world of the Ghost Finders. The contrast between Green’s deceptively light narrative tone and trademark snarky humor and the genuinely creepy elements of this story make for a combination that is unsettling, engaging, and downright irresistible.”
