Bridge of Souls
Synopsis
Cassidy Blake, known as Cass, hunts ghosts while she travels with her parents, who host a TV show about haunted places. Her companion is Jacob, a ghost who is also her best friend. Together they have already come through two haunted cities, and Cass is starting to think she has the work figured out.
New Orleans proves a different kind of challenge. The city shows its hauntings openly, with ghost tours, tombs, loud music and all kinds of magic on every street. Cass could easily lose herself among the colorful and grisly local legends.
The larger trouble is an enemy she never expected to meet: a servant of Death itself. What this foe wants is left open, so the stakes rest on what Cass can do against something tied to Death.
This is the third book in the City of Ghosts series, a ghost story with a spooky, adventurous tone. It follows a girl and her ghost friend through a real city that treats its dead as part of daily life, and it leans toward eerie atmosphere and local legend over graphic horror.
