City of Ghosts

Loved it! The story follows a girl named Cassie and her friend Jacob. Jacob.. Is a ghost. Cassie hasnt always been able to see ghosts but an accident changed her life forever. When Cassie's parents announce a change in summer plans, little would Cassie know that her life would change forever. It is the start of her journey in which she discovers her true reason for seeing ghosts.. A purpose.

Cassidy "Cassie" Blake is a survivor. She was saved from an accident by a ghost named Jacob. Note that ghosts cannot touch or hold living people in concept, but Jacob did the impossible somehow. He saved her from drowning in an icy lake. Unknowingly at first, Cassie did not realize Jacob was a ghost until later on when no one else acknowledges him. And so it goes, Jacob ended up being her sidekick ghost partner/companion linked together from that moment on, as Cassie discovers that she comes back to the living with extraordinary power - the ability to see the supernatural by entering the Veil. Together, they have rules on what their friendship consists of, and it's numbered like Rule # 9: Ghost-watching is a two-person sport, or Rule #6: Friends don't leave friends in the dark. With those rules, these two partners would enter another realm, the Veil, where ghosts exist but, on repeat, unable to leave the last traumatic space that they went through alive. There are two essential rules regarding the Veil from the start: (1) don't lose yourself, and (2) don't die while inside. The story is from Cassie's POV. The writing is precise and eerie - very fitting to the mystery of the story. I enjoyed the whole investigative feel of the story. Coincidentally, with Cassie's parents also paranormal writers, each place that her family visits for their documentary have a ghost present. It is an excellent documentary concept because instead of staying at a dull beach house, Cassie, along with Grim (her cat), Jacob, and her parents, are now traveling around the world searching for ghosts and paranormal activity. This trip would take them to three of the biggest cities in the world, filled with curious and somewhat dangerous adventures! Note: the books need not be read in sequence since the author summarizes things for readers who jump in the middle. But if you are like me, who would rather find out these past details on your own, I highly suggest you read it in sequence to keep the pace as you go through the rest of the series. City of Ghosts (Book 1) is the family's visit to Edinburgh, Scotland, for the first of The Inspecter documentary series. Reluctantly, Cassidy discovers a lot more than she bargained for when the taping itinerary is haunting specific. With the Veil predominant in those places, Cassie could not ignore "the pull." She doesn't know what she needs to do, aside from being a spectator to what happened to the lives of the trapped ghosts. What an adventure this first series gives readers. During one of the site taping/visits, Cassie stumbles on a powerful ghost, The Raven in Red, who wants Cassie's life; things started to turn to the worst as more Veils seem to appear around her and Jacob - pulling her through it. Trying her best to avoid it, but to no avail, Cassie falls into one as a trap. So with Jacob, and an unexpected friend, Cassie races to retrieve what was stolen or be stuck in the spirit world forever. Be ready to believe in urban legends of missing children and unsettled ghosts, as this book will send chills and fear into your very bones. Suggestion: don't read it alone in the dark for the last few chapters. It got a bit hairy for me.
