Lara Jean Chowdhury is a curious girl, with her neat clothing and mirror pendant necklace, but Cassidy feels an unexplainable connection to her. When she returns to The Lane’s End after the startling encounter, Cassidy meets the mysterious girl from the stairs. Schwab is the author of over 20 novels, including her Shades of Magic series and the best-selling adult fiction novel The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. Through Cassidy’s adventures in the world’s most haunted cities, Schwab creates a horror-edged fantasy that includes spine-tingling details but is accessible to a younger audience. The trilogy concludes with Bridge of Souls, set in the iconic city of New Orleans. Book Two, Tunnel of Bones, is set in Paris, France, and shows Cassidy exploring the city’s legendary catacombs, which hold more than 6 million skeletons. All the ghost stories told in the novel except the account of the Raven in Red are based on known tales. Schwab, who resides part-time in Edinburgh, includes a map in the front matter of the book that outlines the haunted locations in the city. City of Ghosts is set in Edinburgh, Scotland, and takes its title from the city’s nickname. City of Ghosts, published in 2018, is Victoria Schwab’s first middle-grade novel and the first in her Cassidy Blake trilogy, which follows the series’s namesake as she travels with her parents to the most haunted cities in the world.
