Anna Dressed in Blood

Anna Dressed in Blood (2011) Kendare Blake

Cas has inherited his father’s calling–killing ghosts. He has a special knife, and he can sense ghosts, so when ghosts harm the living, Cas and his knife move them along to their next life.

It’s a lonely life, and one that has kept him from making friends, but he can sense the ghosts, so he needs to deal with these restless spirits.

Anna is a ghost story in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Except she’s not just a ghost story, she’s a ghost with a history of tearing people limb from limb, all the while dripping blood from her slit throat.

Yes, this is a YA story, and it’s a fabulous one. I read it in two sittings.
Rating: 8.5/10
