Another tough mystery for Brynn and Bernie along with some of their friends. Lota of suspects, real and spiritual, cause much confusion. A very enjoyable read.!

I think this is my favorite of the series so far, though I wish we had gotten to spend more time with her parents. I really liked the ghosts in this one, well except for the one we weren't supposed to like. I sort of let this series fall by the wayside as I worked my way through Razzy Cat, the Clowder Cats, and Finn and Briar. Now that I'm caught up on all those, I can focus on this series.

Fun, short read

I enjoy the concept of a ghost buster and her friends. Especially Bernie, the talking cat. I did figure out the guilty party very quickly. Good for an evening’s read.

The Haunting in the Hallway

Wow another great book that keeps your mind so involved with each interaction that takes place. It also has your emotions going in so many different directions. Great book I recommend this series highly.

Fun quick read. More ghosts are involved this time - a group of 4 - and they keep Brynn busy. Her relationship with Zane seems to be taking a step forward. And he gets to meet her parents in a pretty cringe-worthy way! There are misspellings and editing errors in spots - not numerous, but they were a bit confusing at first.

Who Killed The Actress

The actress had disappeared. What had happened to her? Was it an accident? This is a paranormal story full of mystery.

[Jackie Welcel · Rating 5 out of 5]

I always enjoy the Soul Seeker Mysteries. I read a lot of dark psychological thrillers mixed with lighter fun books like this series. All the characters are so appealing and fun to read about. This was a very good one. No crazy wraiths, or demons just plain old ghosts but there are a bunch of them. Good book!

Another hit!

Wow! This story was just full of spirits in need of help. I really loved the different personalities of the spirits and their interactions.
