The Last Resort 2: The Claiming

Book 2 in the groundbreaking, spooky series where you can
talk to ghosts that come to life and help solve the mystery!

For the first time, Teddy is actually excited for the new semester.
His new neighbors, Lila and Caleb, are transferring to his
school, which means he'll finally have real friends! But
Teddy has a secret he's desperate to protect –
one that explains why none of his classmates have spoken to
him in years...

And that's not all. Despite having sent the fire maiden back through
the portal, strange things keep happening at the Castle Hill
Inn. The nightmares haven't stopped, and after getting stuck in
the portal herself, Lila seems to be ... flickering?!
Almost as if something, or someone, is trying to summon her from
our world into the next.

Teddy will do anything to protect his friends, but trouble follows
him wherever he goes, and he's terrified of repeating
the worst mistake of his life. But Teddy might be the key to uncovering
the fire maiden's evil plans, and in order to stop her,
he'll have to face his greatest fears – the ones he's
spent his whole life running from.
