Lockwood & Co.: the screaming staircase. Jonathan Stroud. 2013.

The dead are back to haunt the living. Evil spirits crowd the streets after dark.

Are you in danger of being ghost-touched?

With ghostly criminal cases on the rise, psychic investigations agents are in demand as never before. The smallest, most ramshackle - but arguably the best- of these agencies is Lockwood & Co.

Meet the dashing, scatty Anthony Lockwood, his loyal, book-loving deputy George Cubbins;  and their newest agent, brave Lucy Carlyle.

Together they must use their talents not keep you - and themselves - alive……..
