Synopsis

Prepare for more spooky, swoony YA from BookTok star

@Merrowchild!

The thing about death is … it sneaks up on

you.

Seventeen-year-old seer Charlie and his new boyfriend, Sam, know

that the dead can't hurt the living. It's ghosts who need protection

from dangerous soul catchers - and the boys have promised

to keep them safe. But when a powerful force interferes with their

defences, and a brutal attack leaves them questioning everything

they know, the boys realize there is more at stake than they ever

imagined.

A deadly occultist seeks revenge, the bodies are piling up, and

everyone that Charlie loves is at risk. As the mystery unravels,

Charlie and Sam face a battle for more than just their lives.

The thrilling and heart-wrenching new novel from the author

of Sixteen Souls.

Perfect for fans of Cemetery Boys, Becky

Albertalli and V E Schwab.

Sixteen Souls was an instant YA bestseller.

Dubbed by Book Tok as "Heartstopper with Ghosts".
