Ebenezer Scrooge: Ghost Hunter by J. S. Barnes

(Thank you Titan Books for providing me with a copy of this book!)

Ebenezer Scrooge is a ghost hunter?! Say what?! Whoa! Now, talk about a definite must-read. This is one book that I am excited to gobble up over the holiday season. I mean, c'mon, how could I not, right? Scrooge is from one of my favorite reads - A Christmas Carol; and now he's hunting ghosts? It's a look for him I never thought I would see and I must say, I'm intrigued. So, what exactly is this book about?

Well, according to the description...

'In 1850, only one man stands between the living and the dead; only one man can uncover the secrets of the afterlife. His name? Ebenezer Scrooge.

An uncanny festive sequel to the classic novel, written in the tradition of Charles Dickens.

Perfect for fans of Laura Purcell and Kate Griffin. 

Seven years have passed since the events of A Christmas Carol, seven years since the night Ebenezer Scrooge took to a life of philanthropy and kindness.

But there is another side to Scrooge. Those afflicted by spirits and hauntings know of him as a man who can help rid them of the unquiet dead. Alongside his trusted companion and old friend, Captain Ambrose, Scrooge faces off against malevolent poltergeists, and supernatural wickedness.

So when Louisa Fell invites him to investigate her family home on the coast of England, he is more than happy to oblige. But the mysteries at the Fell house are deep and terrifying, and the more Scrooge uncovers, the more he risks awakening the ghosts of his past, present, and of things yet to come.'

Are you kidding me? How exciting and fun does that sound? I know I'm eager to find out about this other side to Scrooge and also to see him in action, so to speak. Like, what exactly does he see when he sees theses spirits and how exactly does he get rid of them. I mean, I have to find out. So, I'm definitely looking forward to sitting down with a huge cuppa and diving right in. 

What about you? What do you think? Let me know. Is a ghost hunting Scrooge your cup of tea? I'd say, yes! Make sure to grab a copy! Happy reading!
