Book Description
================
A sinister Problem has occurred in London: all nature of ghosts, haunts,
spirits, and specters are appearing throughout the city, and they aren't
exactly friendly. Only young people have the psychic abilities required
to see-and eradicate-these supernatural foes. Many different Psychic
Detection Agencies have cropped up to handle the dangerous work, and
they are in fierce competition for business.
In The Screaming Staircase, the plucky and talented Lucy Carlyle teams
up with Anthony Lockwood, the charismatic leader of Lockwood & Co, a
small agency that runs independent of any adult supervision. After an
assignment leads to both a grisly discovery and a disastrous end, Lucy,
Anthony, and their sarcastic colleague, George, are forced to take part
in the perilous investigation of Combe Carey Hall, one of the most haunted
houses in England. Will Lockwood & Co. survive the Hall's legendary
Screaming Staircase and Red Room to see another day?
Listeners who enjoyed the action, suspense, and humor in Jonathan Stroud's
internationally bestselling Bartimaeus books will be delighted to find
the same ingredients, combined with deliciously creepy scares, in his
thrilling and chilling Lockwood & Co. series.
