Publisher's Summary

Five months after the events in The Creeping Shadow, we join Lockwood, Lucy, George, Holly, and their associate Quill Kipps on a perilous night mission: they have broken into the booby-trapped Fittes Mausoleum, where the body of the legendary psychic heroine Marissa Fittes lies. Or does it?

This is just one of the many questions to be answered in book five of the Lockwood & Co. series. Will Lockwood ever reveal more about his family's past to Lucy? Will their trip to the Other Side leave Lucy and Lockwood forever changed? Will Penelope Fittes succeed in shutting down their agency forever? The young agents must survive attacks from foes both spectral and human before they can take on their greatest enemy in a climactic and chaotic battle. And, to prevail, they will have to rely on help from some surprising - and shadowy - allies.

Jonathan Stroud once again delivers a rousing adventure full of danger, laughs, twists, and frights. The revelations will send listeners back to book one to start the series all over again.

Another great Lockwood and Co story but sad to see it end

I could have kept reading about Lucy and Lockwood and George and Holly and kips and even the skull for another five books. As always, the story had a great pace, kept you very engaged, and I struggled to turn off the book because it was just so good. I really would’ve loved to have seen the next chapter in their life after this book. I really really loved the series.

These books are exceptional. Listen! Read! Love!!

These books are wonderful. The writing is touching, funny, terrifying, and warm. Emily Bevan embodies each of Jonathan Stroud's fully realized, lovingly flawed characters. If you love great stories and word- perfect writing, listen!!

Great series to get lost in!

I really enjoyed the surreal paranormal world that Stroud created in this series. The characters were well developed and the story evolved over the series in a thrilling and enjoyable way.

Would have loved it without the profanity

Liked the story, didn't appreciate the profanity. I really enjoyed the first four books but the fifth book seemed to have to much of the proverbial fly in the ointment. (Profaning Deity) Disappointing as I had sought out this author due to enjoying another series of his.
The narration was good, but would have been better had it been consistent throughout the series. Three different narrators in the series.
