The Girl Who Ignored Ghosts by KC Tansley

Kat Preston doesn't believe in ghosts.  She absolutely does NOT believe in ghosts!  She keeps repeating this over and over to protect herself from what she knows are the "Unbelievables."  When Kat was eight, an "unbelievable" tried to inhabit her body, and she never wants another experience like that again!

Kat is offered the scholarship of a lifetime with Dr. Astor and his team.  What Kat doesn't realize when she accepts the scholarship is that the summer research class she is taking with Dr. Astor involves researching family curses and hauntings.  She is also expected to spend at least two weeks at the Castle Creighton off the coast of Connecticut.  The castle is owned by the Radcliffe family, and a terrible tragedy occurred on the island in the 1800's.  Ever since that tragedy, the first born son of the Radcliffe family meets a tragic death at the age of twenty-three.

It is up to Kat and her team to break the curse and save the life of the current owner, Joshua Radcliffe.  They must learn the terrible secrets of the castle before Joshua turns twenty-three - which is in three weeks.

This was a free download from Amazon, and I read it on a whim.  I liked it....a lot.  This is a Young Adult novel with great character development, and plot.  I had the culprit figured out, but I didn't have a clue how the plot would be resolved.

This is Book 1 in a series that I will continue to read.  I hope you take a chance on it as well.
