Meet the operatives of the Carnacki Institute-JC Chance: the team leader, brave, charming, and almost unbearably arrogant; Melody Chambers: the science geek who keeps the antisupernatural equipment running; and Happy Jack Palmer: the terminally gloomy telepath. Their mission: Do Something About Ghosts. Lay them to rest, send them packing, or just kick their nasty ectoplasmic arses. In a quiet London suburb, four university students participating in an experiment inside a reputed haunted house hold a sEance that goes terribly wrong. What-or who-ever they summoned has taken their minds away, leaving them empty shells. Enter the Ghost Finders, ready to confront an enraged poltergeist for the students' very souls. All in a day's work-except the team doesn't know that in another part of the city, a different entity has also breached the threshold between worlds. And this time what is at stake is not four lives-but the very existence of all humanity.

      Seemingly unrelated back-to-back incidents have paranormal investigators hopping in Green’s fifth Ghost Finders novel (after Spirits from Beyond). JC Chance, Melody Chambers, and Happy Jack Palmer are called to a room where four university students sit in a state of suspended animation, seated around a Ouija board. Adrian Volke, their psychology professor, insists he’s conducted similar psychological “experiments” before, with benign results. This time, though, Melody is certain they are facing diabolical forces from the Outer Reaches. Then Carnacki Institute field team leader Catherine Latimer dispatches the team to a small radio station where everybody’s hearing voices. Grisly visions of team members being grotesquely murdered heighten the sense of danger. Green comes through with more than enough gore, wit, and mild suspense to satisfy series fans.

      When it comes to supernatural mysteries, the British solve them them with style, and black humor. The Ghostfinders are called upon when undead voices keep calling a local radio station, warning about some undefined approaching evil. Narrator Tim Gerard Reynolds shines with male voices--particularly that of a depressed telepath named "Happy," who speaks in a slow, heavy Cockney accent. The Ghostfinders' leader sports an urbane North London accent and a crisp, unruffled tone as he attempts to handle the unexplainable. Reynolds's female voices, on the other hand, sometimes sound too whiny. Reynolds's sharp delivery of numerous cutting remarks is enjoyable, but the sarcasm takes away from the suspense of the plot as the writing becomes too witty for its own good.
