Synopsis

"Ishmael Jones knows all there is to know about solving mysteries. Together with his love and partner in crimes, Penny Belcourt, he specializes in cases of the weird and uncanny.
Lucas Carr went to Glenbury Hall, an old country manor house turned hotel. He signed in at reception, took his key, and went upstairs to his room. But he never got there. Somehow he vanished along the way, with not a single clue to suggest what might have happened to him.
Lucas belonged to the same mysterious organization that employs Ishmael and Penny, so they are sent in to solve the mystery. But when they arrive at grim and isolated Glenbury Hall, they discover it has a reputation as one of the most haunted old houses in England. None of the usual headless monks or walled-up nuns—just stories of lost souls that dance with the statues in the grounds; doors that won’t stay shut, and rooms that aren’t always there; and something that prowls the house in the early hours, endlessly searching. They say . . . it crawls.
Does Lucas’ disappearance have something to do with the organization or the Hall’s haunted past? Ishmael and Penny have to work their way through a series of mysterious clues and misleading suspects, uncovering secret after secret, before they finally arrive at a truth that no-one suspected.
The problem with history is that it’s not always content to stay in the past.
Performed by Scott McCormick, Laura C. Harris, Marni Penning, Peter Stanley, Jeri Marshall, Tracy Lynn Olivera, Khaya Fraites, Rayner Gabriel, Steve Wannall, and Michael John Casey."

Goodreads review by Alisa on February 27, 2024

A solid book in the series. I was surprised that not a lot of people died before Ishmael and Penny figured everything out, usually in these books people die left and right. But the overall events had nothing to do with the main plot of the series, this was just a sideways job so to speak.......more

Goodreads review by Terry on March 27, 2023

It's a strong mystery, but it feels like it was a letdown after the last book. If you are looking for more answers, there are none, no more information to the arching storyline.......more

Goodreads review by Darius on July 23, 2023

Not the best from Ishmael Jones, another haunted house where nothing much happens. Lucas Carr , a member of the secret organization that Ishmael works for, checked into Glenbury Hall, an old supposedly haunted country manor house turned hotel, and then promptly disappeared. Ishmael and Penny are sent......more

Goodreads review by Rachel on December 22, 2022

Spooky and disturbing I like how you can never quite tell what kind of problem Ishmael and Penny will run into. This time, neither do they — the first half is mostly wandering around a haunted house, trying to figure out who’s lying to them and what’s going on. It was spooky enough that I had trouble......more
