Description
Abby, Toby, and Billy are ordinary detectives with extraordinary clients: G-G-Ghosts!
It's just another summer day of hunting frogs for twelve-year-old Billy, Abby, and Toby, when they stumble upon a deserted lake cabin and meet Mary, a real live ghost, searching for her lost locket. The trio offer to help her find it and the Fantastic Phantasmic Detective Agency is launched.
But when the youthful sleuths enlist the help of the grumpy medium, Mr. Monsento, to help them with their second case, locating a ghost's missing ghost brother, a mysterious visitor from the UnderWorld appears. Soon the agency is entangled in a conflict between rebellious spirits, undead Realm Walkers, officious OtherWorld Bureaucrats and traitorous UnderWorld Demon Ambassadors.
If you like your ghost stories with a twist and a dash of humor, you'll definitely enjoy this book.

I found this book to be enjoyable. It's exactly the kind of book I would have read as a child. I loves all the paranormal, mixed with the normal day-to-day activities of being a kid. I hope they have many a adventure. #TheFantasticPhantasmicDetectiveAgencyAndTheRebelRealm

This was such a fun ghostly mystery! I loved the characters, even the cranky ones, and the kids were very realistically written. They reminded me of my kids and their friends, so that's saying something! The mystery was very well written and the world building, in both realms, was done very well.
I enjoyed this book very much and would definitely recommend it to middle graders up to adults! I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
5/5 stars.
