I was loaned this book as I was going on a long train journey and didn't have anything to take with me. It's not the usual kind of thing I read but I was assured that it was quite good and that I'd enjoy it. It's a murder mystery about a father and daughter paranormal detective team who are looking for their missing son/brother. On the way, they come across a haunted fish and chip shop and decide to look into the mystery of it.

It was a little bit confusing with the fact that the father and daughter are on the trail of a missing family member but decide to stop off in this town and solve a mystery that has nothing to do with who they're looking for. There is a very loose connection with someone in the town who saw the missing person but rather than rushing off before the trail goes cold, they don't seem all that concerned about it. I didn't really see the point of that, but it was probably needed as a reason for them to be in that particular place.

This isn't a difficult book to read, I managed it in a couple of hours. Even though it's not the kind of book I would normally read, it wasn't too bad and kept me engrossed enough. It was good enough to pass the time on the train journey but certainly not something I'd want to read again. ( )
