Where there are ghosts, Cassidy Blake follows . . .Unless it's the other way around?Cass thinks she might have this ghost-hunting thing down. After all, she and her ghost best friend, Jacob, have survived two haunted cities while traveling for her parents' TV show.But nothing can prepare Cass for New Orleans, which wears all of its hauntings on its sleeve. In a city of ghost tours and tombs, raucous music and all kinds of magic, Cass could get lost in all the colorful, grisly local legends. And the city's biggest surprise is a foe Cass never expected to face: a servant of Death itself.
And with that, Cassidy’s story comes to a close (or does it?). With this book, we do get a conclusion to the big mystery that was set up in the second book in the series. We finally encounter what is stalking Cassidy through the streets of Paris and now New Orleans. We get to finally meet The Society of the Black Cat and we get more information on what is happening to Jacob. Overall, this series was a delightful spooky read. It’s not true horror, but leans a bit more gentle and twee. My biggest complaint has to be the constant reminders of Cassidy’s condition and her relationship with Jacob. Those passages really felt like filler in the book. I would have liked to see a bit more ghost-busting this one. But I did enjoy the big final battle.
