this is a great kids ghost story series apparently. It seems set back in time. I would have been peeling through these as each new one came out. Three kids have a ghost running detective business with an adult they can use to get around to places. There latest case is to relay a deceased cat spirit to its deceased own in the human relay station & run into a deceased girl when going to find the cat in pet cemetery that died in an animal form because she had experimented & her dad had accidentally thrown her out the window & had to bury her in the pet cemetery. Great mystery & plot. There is some good ethics in it without being preachy. Would definitely recommend for parents trying to get their kids to read more this is the second in a series & would be perfect.

Second Book I read about the teenage detectives and Mr. Monsanto the medium. They can see ghosts and help them with their Problems. Fun to read for Young adults.

When the Fantastic Phantasmic Detective Agency undertook a case to find a missing reviewghost they had no idea what they would find themselves involved in. Joseph Green is not the only missing ghost, and his disappearance is not due to the standard exorcism. Someone is employing a medium to capture the spirits using a method unseen for a very long time. But since neither Otherworld or Underworld have a need to pursue such undertakings, it begs the question who is behind the disappearance of souls, and what do they hope to gain from it? Luckily Monsento and his gang of young sleuths are on the case, but do they have what it takes to unravel this mystery and survive?

The Fantastic Phantasmic Detective Agency and The Case of the Missing Ghost by D.L. Dugger is a paranormal fiction targeting towards young teenagers, but enjoyable by most age ranges. Abby, Toby and Billy, run a detective agency like no other, one which takes requests from the dead. To do this they have the help of their medium, Arthur Monsento. Written in the alternative first person of Arthur and Abby you are given both an adult and teenage perspective of unfolding events allowing you to be drawn deeper into the intriguing mystery. The characters, like the plot itself, are fun and entertaining and at more than one point I found myself chuckling. I enjoyed the incorporation and adaptation of Greek mythology as well as the growth the characters displayed throughout the book. While it is apparent that this is not the first book in the series, the author does a wonderful job in bringing the reader up to speed thus allowing anyone picking up this book to enjoy the plot in full, while also being intrigued to learn what may have happened before. I enjoyed the playfulness of this book, and it reminded me a lot of the young sleuth mysteries I read as a child with one added bonus, this is heavily influenced by the paranormal, making it a more adult combination of Scooby-doo and Nancy Drew combined with the darker aspects of Strangers Things.

This is a great paranormal mystery for children. This story takes the detectives on a heartwarming adventure to find a ghost cat. Wonderful characters, fun read.

All thoughts and opinions are my own, and in no way have I been influenced by anyone.

The Fantastic Phantasmic Detective Agency is back with two new cases.

Yet again the writing is superb. The characters are well rounded and the tale flows quickly enough to keep young minds engaged. The only bit that could be improved on is help with identifying who is speaking especially as this seems to be aimed at the younger reader.

I appreciate the publisher allowing me to read this book. A great Series that just gets more interesting as I read more titles. Highly recommend for mystery lovers.
