The Haunted Air

Things are changing for Jack as he comes out of his mourning for his sister Kate. He starts out bored at a party and then he is led to a house of a medium where strange things happen immediately after walking over the threshold.

This is a very good continuation of the Repairman Jack series, though it is less of a standalone than previous books. There is a major callback to The Tomb, and now Jack's past fixes are tying more and more into current events so the reader will need to read the past books or at least get familiar with the universe.

There is more character development of Gia in this book and it takes an interesting turn. She is more involved with a fix than in previous books, and we find that she is less content with sitting on the sidelines waiting for Jack. I don't know if this will continue or if she would rather stay out after what happens here.

Overall this stands strong, but there is also setup for potential events in the next book as there are a few major loose threads for Jack that will need to be resolved. Then again, Wilson has set up this series to have the larger story arc which shows no signs of finishing just yet.
