Synopsis : Cas Lowood is not your average teenager. He kills the dead, so did his father before him until he is was gruesomely murdered by a ghost he sought to kill. Now armed with his father's mysterious and deadly athame, Cas travels the country with his witchy mother and spirit sniffing cat. Together they follow legends and local lore,sniffing out the dead to keep them at bay.
When they arrive in a new town in search of a ghost locals call Anna Dressed in Blood. She's no ordinary ghost, she's is filled with rage,entangled in a curse, a ghost like he has never faced before. She still wears the dress she was brutally murdered in, a dress soaked in blood. Anna has killed any person who set foot in her deserted Victorian home she used to call home.
My verdict : It's not a book I recommend to kids unless they want to wake up screaming.A Hitchhiker gets murdered comes back as a ghost to kill but in the end gets his throat slit,Man kills wife with shotgun then turns the gun on himself, both duo later kills people for thrills..All the juicy gore bits, seriously..
This book gets a lil draggy at some point.There's some good bits here n there,towards the end it gets better...I'll leave out the juicy bits out..Overall it's a pretty okay book and I don't mind reading the 2nd instalment. I want to know what happens.
