A little time after the events of What Moves The Dead, Easton travels home to their caretaker, only to find him dead and gone. The locals are secretive, and now they have to find a new housekeeper before Miss Potter arrives to visit. 

This book wasn't quite as strong as the previous, but I loved the old and new characters so much. This story explored superstition, as Alex grapples with the new housekeeper's insistence of a presence in the house. The wizened, matter of fact grandma figure certainly brought a lot of comedic moments in the story.

I think what let it down, just a little, for me, was that the starting mystery of the locals refusing to explain the previous housekeeper's death was almost shrugged off as superstition, and I don't think we got a strong moment and understanding the enemy like we did in the previous book.
