Anna Dressed in Blood: Australia

Description

Cas Lowood has inherited an unusual vocation: He kills the dead. So did his father before him, until his gruesome murder by a ghost he sought to kill. Now Cas travels the country with his kitchen-witch mother and their spirit-sniffing cat. On his travels he finds a girl entangled in curses and rage. She wears a dress, once white, now stained with dripping blood. Since her death, Anna has killed any and every person she meets. And she, for whatever reason, spares Cas's life.

Kendare Blake grew up in Cambridge, Minnesota, and she now lives in Washington DC. She has an MA in Creative Writing from Middlesex University. Anna Dressed in Blood is her first novel.

An unusual love story, a thrill-a-minute ghost story, and an unputdownable thriller. It's the best book I've read this year and I don't say that lightly. - sapartridge.bookslive
