Lockwood & Co Series

Author: Stroud, Jonathan
Ghosts walk the streets of London, and if they touch you, you die. Only children can see them, so what do the local Psychic Investigations Agencies do? Hire them, of course. Creepy, dripping with ghost blood, and that eerie London fog, The Screaming Staircase and the rest of this set will keep you on edge. Lucy Carlyle is a talented young agent who not only can see the walking dead, but can hear their voices, and experience their memories if she touches their belongings. When tragedy puts her out of a job, she joins up with Lockwood to solve mysteries surrounding the paranormal. Stroud's writing is atmospheric and spooky, but the banter is laugh out loud funny! Makes for a great combo. While Lucy is our narrator, and she is resourceful, brave, and talented, she is regularly upstaged by Lockwood himself and his sardonic wit, so it's not high on the list, but it definitely deserves a shout-out.
