Description
The Whispering Skull is the second book in the Lockwood & Co. series by Jonathan Stroud. It's been six months since Anthony, Lucy, and George survived a night in the most haunted house in England, but Lockwood & Co. hasn't made much progress. A new client, Mr. Saunders, hires the team to be present at the excavation of Edmund Bickerstaff, a Victorian doctor who reportedly tried to communicate with the dead. The team is tasked with sealing Bickerstaff's coffin with silver to prevent any supernatural trouble. However, things take a turn when George's curiosity attracts a horrible phantom, and the team is summoned to DEPRAC headquarters. A strange glass object buried with the corpse has vanished, and Inspector Barnes believes it to be highly dangerous. The author of the Bartimaeus series delivers another amusing, chilling, and ingeniously plotted entry in the critically acclaimed Lockwood & Co. series.
