A teen ghost hunter sets his sights on the murderous ghost of a girl who has been haunting her house since the 1950s: Anna Dressed in Blood.
One of NPR\'s Top 5 Young Adult Novels of 2011..
Kendare Blake\'s Anna Dressed in Blood is a 2011 Kirkus Best Teen Books of the Year title.
Yet she spares Cas\'s life.
Since her death, Anna has killed any and every person who has dared to step into the deserted Victorian she used to call home.
She still wears the dress she wore on the day of her brutal murder in 1958: once white, now stained red and dripping with blood.
What he finds instead is a girl entangled in curses and rage, a ghost like he\'s never faced before.
Searching for a ghost the locals call Anna Dressed in Blood, Cas expects the usual: track, hunt, kill.
They follow legends and local lore, destroy the murderous dead, and keep pesky things like the future and friends at bay.
Now, armed with his father\'s mysterious and deadly athame, Cas travels the country with his kitchen-witch mother and their spirit-sniffing cat.
So did his father before him, until he was gruesomely murdered by a ghost he sought to kill.
From Kendare Blake, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Three Dark Crowns , a beautiful and haunting ghost story Cas Lowood has inherited an unusual vocation: He kills the dead.
