Another compelling, chilling, gripping, and enticing book in the Rylan Flynn mystery series! This book grabbed my attention from the very first page! The Haunted Child: A completely unputdownable paranormal mystery thriller proved to be a fast paced page turner which I enjoyed in one sitting! Rylan Flynn has a special gift of seeing ghosts/spirits and helps to solve the mystery of their deaths and helps them to move on. I have enjoyed this series from the very first book, The Spirit Girls, and have to say that the series keeps getting better and better.

Andrea Evans was found with a bloody knife in her hands and her boyfriend dead at her feet. She knows Rylan from their time together at Camp Lakewood when they were children. When Rylan meets with Andrea, Rylan knows that Andrea is innocent and sets out to find the real killer and help Andrea clear her name. During her investigation, readers are given glimpses back to the summer when Rylan met Andrea. I enjoyed being able to see Rylan when she was younger and away at summer camp. Fans of the series will be pleased to see Detective Ford Pierce in this book as well.

I enjoy the paranormal aspects of this book, the mystery of the present day and the events which occurred at camp, and the relationship between Rylan and Ford. I also enjoy how nothing in this book is overly graphic or scary. The Haunted Child: A completely unputdownable paranormal mystery thriller a nice paranormal mystery which keeps me on my toes while glued to the pages. This book, as with the other books in this series, was well written, well thought out, and had a nice amount of character development.

I loved doing my own super sleuthing along with Ford and Rylan and did not see the ending coming! I love it when that happens. I also loved the twists, the tension, the mounting dread, and suspense in this book. I didn’t want it to end!

Addictive, chilling, haunting and hard to put down! I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

Thank you to Second Sky Books and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
