    Moll, Redd, Agnes, and Ossie are powerful — and dangerous. But they don’t want people to fear them. They’ve spent their lives trying to understand and control their supernatural gifts, trying to help people instead of hurt them.
     That’s why they offer paranormal investigative services to anyone who needs them. But when the case of a missing young woman brings them to an old (and potentially haunted) Victorian mansion, soon it’s the four teens who are in the greatest danger. The secrets they uncover about the paranormal forces inhabiting the house may shed light on the darkness that exists at the edge of their powers and finally help them gain control — if they can make it out alive.

*MY THOUGHTS*

This was wild? I wish y’all could see my damn notes for this lol They were legit all over the place. I didn’t even know what to expect from this weird ass book lol Now I don’t mean this in a bad way, but just know this is a crazy read lol

Ok so the plot of this was the part that was all over the place. I never knew where this was going. And even less so because I don’t actually read the synopsis of Bayron’s books anymore lmao But still, I thought it was interesting. They all had different powers and that was definitely cool. It felt a little info-dumpy at times trying to figure everything out, but after getting through that it worked. And I’m actually glad I had an ARC to go along with this audio, because I was a little confused. It was extremely helpful to go back and find where I was in the actual text.

The characters were crazy. *SPOILER* Her mama was a mess. Why did she act like that to them? She didn’t do anything but hinder them. I know she was trying to help them, but doing what she did was not the way to do it. *END SPOILER* The kids themselves tho was kinda crazy. Idk why y’all just kept doing all this. Just because you wanted to hunt some ghosts? Let me tell you something, I would have left those ghosts where they were lmao It left them open to too much. And they thought it was going to be something else. Smh Yeah look what you walked into lol

This was crazy. It went from regular ghost hunting, to supernatural ghost hunting, to fantastical ghost hunting. It really was all over the place. But it worked. it was really reminicist of the other horror book she did. It really was crazy. But somehow in the end I was crying too? This was a trip for real, so I need more of y’all to read it and make sure I’m not crazy lol

Overall, I give this
