Jonathan Stroud is a master storyteller who keeps you hanging on to every spine-tingling word.  You’ll be hooked long before you turn the final page of The Screaming Staircase, the first in a chilling new series full of suspense, humour and truly terrifying ghosts. Your nights will never be the same again...

Every evening the sound of the warning bell marks the beginning of curfew and people all over the city retreat to the safety of their homes.  Security is of the utmost importance and salt, lavender and iron are now household staples.  Adults are no longer sensitive enough to deal with the strange, malignant hauntings a part of everyday life.  So it is down to the young to keep the city's residents safe.  Meet the enigmatic Anthony Lockwood and his associates Lucy Carlyle and George Gubbins of A.J. Lockwood & Co. Investigators.   A small agency, run without the interference of adults, they consider themselves to be the best.  However, after a disastrous encounter with a deadly girl ghost, the agency is in danger of closing down.  Will solving an old Missing Persons investigation and spending a terrifying night in the most haunted house in the country save them? Maybe, if of course, they are lucky enough to come away with their lives.
