In a world where phantoms are considered "unclean," the spirits of her town have already been swept away. All except Emma Rose. But when a determined hunter arrives with instructions to extinguish her once and for all, Emma Rose refuses to be hounded from her haunt, the stately Lambry Mansion. She's earned her place and shell keep iteven if it means waging a war on the living. After all, she's got nothing left to lose.

This book was so very pretty. Pretty in a haunting, gothic sort of way. It‘s told from the POV of a ghost, in a world where ghosts are very well known to exist, (despite being loathed), and hunted. I‘m curious to read the rest of the series. Also, I‘m a sucker for books where ghosts are the narrator...strange as that is 😂

This was a good book. I think the ending, unfortunately, was a bit flat.
This is a ghost story from the perspective of a ghost! 👻

“Just because you can‘t see a thing doesn‘t mean she isn‘t there.”
Whoa. I‘m not one for ghosty-supernatural style fiction, but this was a great book. The ending fell a bit flat, but very good read overall.

Well, how high am I supposed to build that stack? I‘ll go for favorite recent, Emma Rose Finnis, a ghost who‘s wise and fierce and knows what it means to be alive.
“If the living don‘t listen to the warnings of the dead, how are we to blame?...For what is a ghost, except a voice in your head you should pay attention to, but don‘t?”

This was a good ghost story. It's told from the ghost point of view. I was kept spellbound throughout the book. Like the ending.

Discovered this book & author by accident on Facebook when a few posted about going to a reading of this book by the author at our local Indie book store Scuppernong. The author is a creative writing professor at Guilford College. I absolutely fell in love with this ghost story! Told from the viewpoint of the ghost, the reader is taken thru unexpected twists & turns.This ghost has wit, spunk and perseverance. Great read!
