Another ghost story from the series?

Oh yasssss!!!!
So excited to find out what kind of ghost that will appears this time and what the story hide behind it!

After following this series and more less getting familiar with the author writing style and her capabilities to stir the readers curiosity through the mysteries she offers to us, I can assure you that The Haunted Bedchamber definitely another gem from this series!

The story was very engaging, the mysteries are very captivating, and trust me you’ll have a series of goosebumps while you devouring this book but at the same time it also give you interesting experience through Wiremu's night encounters with the ghost! *wink*

Wiremu had to take a long journey from New Zealand to England to fulfill his grandfather’s invitation to stay at Scarhill House. At first, Wiremu come with a plan to get what his father should inherited from his grandfather. There’s a lot of things that happen during his interaction with the other family members that stay in the mansion and that include his grandfather jumpy secretary, Patrick O'Connor that had caught his attention right from the day he arrived at Scarhill House. But dealing with the poltergeist activities from the angry ghost that haunted the mansion was not what he expected to have during the visiting. Frightened but curious at the same time had forced Wiremu to seeking more about who the ghost is and what made the ghost haunted the house. In his way to find the answer, there’s a lot of surprising things that came up from the mysteries that surrounded the house.

Will Wiremu finally find the answer to all strange things and mysteries that come along with the ghost manifestation at Scarhill House?

Well? I will not give you any spoilers about it, so go grab your own copy of this book and find the answer by yourself!

The Haunted Bedchamber is another a must read from Gillian St. Kevern. The strong and unique story this book gave had – again – satisfied and intrigued me. It took only few hours to finish it and I ended it with the wide grin spread at my face!

My only complaint during the reading is this book really need a serious glossary list for all those Maori’s words that being used in this book, I kinda lost at some part and seeking the understanding by guessing the meanings with my own interpretation.

But overall? This book is perfect!

Oh and Pip and Lord Cross part in this story had enough portion to satisfied the longing I felt for the first couple in this series.
