The Story
A Waterstones YA Book of the Month!
Mysterious deaths in the family. A young woman left to inherit a fortune.
Was it ghostly intervention... or murder? The Society of Free
Spirits invites you to investigate, in this YA crime series with a supernatural
twist.
After her father and older sister both die suddenly, Dolores is left with the
family's inheritance, and a large house she's sure is haunted. Teaming up with
her occult-obsessed neighbour, Ada, and the mysterious spiritual medium,
Violet, the three girls plan to dispel the bad spirits from Dolores' home.
But when Dolores uncovers a clue that suggests her sister Edith's death wasn't due
to natural causes, what starts as an investigation into ghostly apparitions
develops into the unravelling of something far more sinister. . .
Ghosts. Murder. The patriarchy. One should never underestimate what a trio of
free-spirited young women can handle.
