About This Book
Reach for this book when your teen is struggling to find their footing after a significant life disruption or trauma. While framed as a supernatural thriller, it speaks deeply to the feeling of being changed by an event while the rest of the world expects you to be your old self. The story follows Rory Deveaux as she returns to her London boarding school after a brush with death, only to find she now possesses the terrifying ability to eliminate ghosts. It is a sophisticated exploration of PTSD, recovery, and the weight of responsibility. Parents will appreciate the realistic portrayal of therapy and the nuances of teen friendship, though they should be aware of the darker, suspenseful tone and mature themes of mortality. It is a compelling choice for readers aged 14 and up who enjoy urban fantasy with emotional depth.
