Overview
Blending a twisted murder mystery in the vein of Knives Out with some dark magic, Little Necromancers is a YA ghostly whodunnit perfect for fans of The Inheritance Games and The Invocations.
Eighteen-year-old psychic Mercy Hawkins is drowning in the exorbitant debt she owes to the necromancers who resurrected her parents. Ghost therapy is an unreliable source of income, and her death predictions never come to fruition, meaning no payout. So when those same necromancers—the powerful and affluent Granville family—come to her with an opportunity to wipe the slate clean, Mercy can’t afford to refuse.
The Granvilles task her with convincing their youngest and most obstinate member, Julian, to come back to life after a brutal fall from his bedroom window. With her ability to see ghosts, only Mercy can reach him. But Mercy has her own reasons to believe that Julian’s death was no accident, and one look at his bloodied ghost confirms her suspicions.
As her employers become her suspects, Mercy reluctantly teams up with the strange and hostile ghosts haunting the Granville estate. Together, they surreptitiously investigate Julian’s murder, entrenching Mercy into a decades-long feud between the house’s two factions—the ghosts, who invisibly cook, clean, and toil for the Granvilles, and the Granvilles themselves, who must acquiesce to the ghosts’ every material demand in exchange for their service. Both sides are anxious to point the finger at the other . . . and both sides have secrets to kill for.
