GHOST HOUSE The Ghost House Saga, Book 1

After the death of her mother, Chloe, who has always had the power to see ghosts, is sent to spend the holidays at her grandmother's British country estate. There she encounters a handsome ghost named Alex and a vengeful ghost named Isobel. Narrator Emily Foster's sarcastic tone is particularly well suited to Chloe's snark and tongue-in-cheek one-liners. Her pacing is slow and measured as she builds to the scary moments. However, Foster has no grasp of the subtleties of a British accent. Her clumsy attempts make all the British characters sound similar and reduce them to caricatures. She would have served the story and listeners better by not attempting an accent.
