Driver's Dead by Peter Lerangis
4.0
Reminds me of: The X files
"It was probably just a practical joke" moment: That awful brother. A point horror cliche.
"You probably just imagined it" moment: I liked how the ghost was really an actual ghost!!! That never happens in Point Horror
Innocent victims?: Well Rob was a green-eyed monster. Virgil deserved some sort of beating. Kirsten was just Nancy Drew style innocent.
How blindingly obvious?: It was a brilliant twist to kill off the love interest early on, just after their first date. Never saw that coming. Unique to Point Horror? It was obvious it was Mr Busk from the title of the book, but I liked that really, the ghost did it.
Plot holes / Unfinished plot lines: Was it a pendant or a locket? Make your mind up. What ever happened to Gwen's plot line?
Inappropriate happy ending: So the ghost gets his pendant / locket back. It was less about finding justice for his murder and more about regaining jewellery.
