At the request of Lady Harcourt, Charlie and Lincoln begin searching for her missing stepson. Still recovering from her ordeal at the hands of a diabolical villain, Charlie is supposed to be resting. But resting is dull, so she throws herself into the task at hand, much to Lincoln's frustration. The search leads them down a dark path littered with family secrets and titillating scandal. Using her necromancy to expose those secrets, Charlie unwittingly raises a spirit with the power to override her control. With a dead body on the loose in London, Charlie and Lincoln must work together to send it back before havoc is unleashed, and the committee members find out. Because if they do, they will have more ammunition in their fight to send Charlie away from her home and everyone she loves.

"This one almost done me in. My blood was boiling from the anger. Lincoln is hot and cold. Lady Harcourt is a money-grubbing wench who can't mind her own business. Honestly, the whole time I was waiting for Charlie to get in over her head so Lincoln would care for her at the very least. I will use most of this review to degrade Lady ***** Harcourt just so ya know.
Why are they helping this evil bitch anyway? Well, she has all the men under her thumb. Oh, and Harcourt doesn't want these men she is just using them and doesn't want anyone else to have them. If you're worried don't be the guys start to look above chest height after a while and start to not like what they see.
Charlie acts like a big child to which I forget that she kind of is. "No, I have to help" She just pushes and pushes when she doesn't need to. Again and again, I have to remember this is only the 3rd month of Charlie being in their lives. Still, I feel there could be more progression. Seth and Gus are getting more character growth but I still need more.
Not sure if I have some past trauma or something but people like Lady Harcourt make me unreasonably upset. Just because you know a man more than someone else doesn't mean you own him. And Lincoln rarely ever took up for Charlie because of Harcourt's claws in him. It was hard to watch. Harcourt even acted like she was better than Charlie because she got lucky and snagged a rich man. Bitch ya'll both practically came from the streets stop acting all hoity-toity.
Uggggghhhhh!!! I'm going to keep ready but I'm not happy right now. The author did this on purpose I know it."
