Could the spirits truly be communicating with him or is this one of Kathleen's parlour tricks gone too far? Based on the true story of Professor William Jackson Crawford and famed medium Kathleen Goligher, and with a cast of characters including Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Harry Houdini, The Spirit Engineer conjures a haunted, twisted tale of power, paranoia and one ultimate, inescapable truth. William Jackson Crawford is a man of science and a sceptic, but one night with everyone sitting around the circle, voices come to him seemingly from beyond the veil placing doubt in his heart and a seed of obsession in his mind.

I found it captivating from the start. I only hope he writes many more books, I wish him well in all he does.

This was such a cleverly told story of death, the afterlife, mediumship and how people perceive life after death. This is screaming to be made into film (to be watched with the lights on tho! It's a bit of slow burner, but once the scenes are set, there is not going back, and I really struggled to put it down. A real page turner.

Science? Constantly making me wonder is it real? The loss of rationality, the hunger to believe and the blindness of betrayal.

The media could not be loaded. Its a beautiful story that is tragic and at the same time spooky.

It's just so amazingly written. What a fabulous read! It was the perfect read for this time of year, although not restricted to it.
