My name is Chloe Saunders and my life will never be the same again. All I wanted was to make friends, meet boys, and keep on being ordinary. I don't even know what that means anymore. It all started on the day that I saw my first ghost—and the ghost saw me. Now there are ghosts everywhere and they won't leave me alone. To top it all off, I somehow got myself locked up in Lyle House, a "special home" for troubled teens. Yet the home isn't what it seems. Don't tell anyone, but I think there might be more to my housemates than meets the eye. The question is, whose side are they on? It's up to me to figure out the dangerous secrets behind Lyle House . . . before its skeletons come back to haunt me.

Would love to get my hands on a copy of this one for review.

I would have been much, much happier if the ending were an ending. Instead, it's a “wait for the next book!” I've found the rest of Armstrong's work to be wonderful, and each book stood alone although they all twine together to create a fascinating universe. I cannot say the same for this one.
