City of Ghosts
Schwab’s middle grade ghost story is a fun, spooky tale. Cass’s ghost-hunting parents might be filming the next season of their TV show in Edinburgh but Cass can really see ghosts, including her best friend Jacob. Once there she befriends a girl who not only sees ghosts but also helps send them permanently beyond the Veil. There’s a sinister presence haunting the city and no good can come from allowing it to stay. Cass is a part of this fight, whether she wants to or not.
