Gus Greenburg can see ghosts. In this spine-tingling sequel to The Ghosts of Nameless Island, bestselling author Carly Anne West takes readers on a pulse-pounding, blood-curdling journey to a circus from the past to unravel the mystery of a malevolent spirit that’s fighting to survive.
“Along with this classically atmospheric setting and scary thumps and other noises aplenty, West treats readers to multiple specters that are even more rousingly hideous in her descriptions than in Skaffa’s spiky, stylishly grotesque monochrome scenes and spot art . . . Hints of dark doings in the island’s past also emerge before this trilogy opener ends with a sudden and terrifying cliffhanger . . . All the shivery feels, escalating to the nightmarish in spots.”—Kirkus Reviews, for The Ghosts of Nameless Island
“Join author Carly Anne West on Nameless Island for a haunting, spine-tingling mystery that will leave you on the edge of your seat! The Ghost of Nameless Island is an illustrated tale of hidden rats, mystery ghosts, and reality TV that is sure to lift your spirits.”—Terrance Crawford, bestselling author of the Piggy series, for The Ghosts of Nameless Island
Picking right up from the spine-tingling cliffhanger of The Ghosts of Nameless Island: Vol. 1, Gus finds himself on the brink of peril, with the Broken Boy’s icy grip tightening around his throat. But just when hope seems lost, his black cat, Cat (named after Catherine the Great, of course) intervenes, breaking the lethal hold and saving Gus from certain doom. Unfortunately, the Broken Boy still has Gus’s lucky penny that protects him from hauntings, and his sole connection to his missing father.
Just as the new school year begins, Gus and his friends, Miles and Tavi, must unravel the new clues that have emerged about the Broken Boy. But with Gus’s penny lost, he isn’t safe from ghosts, and the stakes have never been higher—especially when they discover a new ghost living at Gus’s home of Rotham Manor. And this one was . . . part of a circus?!
Will Gus and his friends uncover the real identity of the ghosts before they strike again? Or will the ghost's sinister plan succeed?
Only one way to find out. . . .
