Description

The first three supernatural GhostWriters mysteries from best-selling, awarding-winning author J.H. Moncrieff.

If you love the chemistry of Mulder and Scully, you won't be able to get enough of Jackson Stone and Kate Carlsson.
She sees dead people. He's a skeptic. But their differences become their strengths as they work together to uncover sinister secrets and solve supernatural mysteries all over the world.

Explore an ancient Chinese ghost city, a haunted Italian island, and the tombs and temples of Egypt in these first three books in the series. Readers are loving these ghost stories with dark humour and heart, told by an author who's journeyed to the world's most haunted places.

"An impressively original, inherently compelling, consistently entertaining novel from cover to cover, City of Ghosts clearly reveals author J.H. Moncrieff's genuine flair for narrative storytelling. Exceptionally well written and one of those novels that will linger in the mind and memory long after the book is finished and set back upon the shelf, City of Ghosts is unreservedly recommended." - Midwest Book Review

"Exceptional character development, a tightly plotted storyline, relentless pacing, and a perfect fusion of horror and irreverence make this virtually impossible to put down. With the novel's addition of exotic locales, adept storytelling, and a decidedly creepy undertone, Moncrieff could very well be the 21st century's version of Algernon Blackwood... unconditionally recommended." - BlueInk Review

"J.H. Moncrieff is a bold new voice in horror and supernatural suspense." - Chuck Wendig, New York Times Bestselling Author of Blackbirds

"City of Ghosts is the undead love child of Ghost Hunters and A Chinese Ghost Story with a touch of Long Island Medium thrown in for humor." - Staci Layne Wilson, entertainment reporter, The Syfy Network and Fangoria

"A fun, chilling supernatural tale. Moncrieff has a breezy, confident prose style that skillfully evokes the dread of the situation and a very smart plot setup." - Kirkus Reviews

What Amazon Readers are saying:

"This book is full of rich details, an emotional journey, and characters you root for. She sets a breathless pace, and you feel like you need to keep reading until the characters are out of danger!"

"Moncrieff expertly weaves a tale of mystery and suspense."

"The imagery and details make me feel as if I were physically present in these exotic countries. Everything, including the stores, the people, the history, and even the local food is told with such authenticity."
"Moncrieff has once again deftly woven real-life intrigue with the supernatural, giving us characters we are deeply invested in, which makes the horror all the more palpable. The dialogue is sharp and witty, making this a very difficult book to put down. I found myself reading it while I walked!"

"Moncrieff keeps the tension building, offset nicely with wisecracking, sarcastic Jackson. The sparks of attraction between Jackson and Kate adds an extra frisson without dragging down the pace."

"J.H. Moncrieff writes powerful scenes that hit you in the gut. Filled with well-drawn characters, mystery, and suspense that kept me reading late into the night."

"Compelling! Thanks for an incredible read!"

"Creepy and pervasive, Moncrieff's City of Ghosts is a seat of your pants tour of China that bristles with atmosphere, and the storytelling is so good you can taste the roast pork and dumplings."

For readers who enjoy paranormal suspense with strong female characters, including those by: Deborah Harkness, Anne Rice, Nora Roberts, Laurell K. Hamilton, Nancy Warren and others.

The series continues with book four, Forest of Ghosts.
