Ellie carries the knowledge of raising the ghosts of the dead. When her cousin dies under curious circumstances Ellie (and her ghost dog companion) knows she needs to get to the bottom of it, travelling across the country and delving into the magical realism of the world. Whilst this reads like a middle grade in some areas, this was a genuinely great book with a solid asexual lead.
Graphic: Death
Moderate: Grief
