Book of the week - Girl of Nightmares

In 2011 Kendare Blake introduced us to the world of Cas Lowood and his ghost fighting abilities (this I cannot explain as you have to read the book in order to fully comprehend it and I do not want to include any spoilers). Cas and his mother move around a great deal ridding the world of ghosts who harm live humans. However they have now moved to Thunder Bay and are planning to settle in.

Cas starts to make friends at school and he is starting to feel more comfortable with himself and his life. Yet the real reason for moving to Thunder Bay is to investigate and rid the world of Anna. Anna is the infamous "Anna Dressed in Blood" who 50 years ago was brutally murdered on the way to the prom. Since her death she has been trapped in her house and anyone who enters the house never comes out. That is until Cas enters the house and develops a relationship with Anna.

Now in the follow up "Girl of Nightmares" Anna has left the human world but Cas has a feeling that she is not well. His psychic link to her is bringing him images of her being trapped in hell and he feels a debt to her so he wants to help her escape. With the help of his friends he is determined to get Anna out - or die trying. (this is the second book in a trilogy so I don't want you to be too far on the edge of your seats).

Incredibly well written with a fast pace, amazing characters and plot twists that keep you reading - "Girl of Nightmares" is a book that you won't regret checking out. It may also keep you up at night.
