Daisy can talk to the dead and it has landed
her a position with the FBI. She goes to
the scene of a murder and helps solve the crime by talking to the murdered suspect. When she is flown in on the murder of a
bodyguard, she tries to help find the kidnapped daughter of the local crime
boss, Devlin Maguire. When Maguire doesn’t
feel like the case is moving along quickly enough, he kidnaps Daisy and
threatens her family unless she finds his daughter. Maguire’s son, Carson, is put in charge of Daisy’s
investigation and quickly the two become supernatural detectives as they
connect art museums and historical books to the missing girl.
This is a fast paced mystery that has supernatural
elements. The chemistry between Daisy
and Carson is great and they question whether or not they can trust each other
throughout the book, which makes the ending exciting. Certain parts of the book feel like Night at
the Museum, but it takes place in Chicago’s Field Museum which is super
creepy/awesome. This was a fun book and
it’s easy to recommend because it will suck the reader in.
