City of Ghosts

Cassidy is just looking forward to a vacation at the beach. She needs a break from the ghosts that demand her attention both around her city and at school. Her break with her family is blissfully free of ghosts, except for her best friend, Jacob, who happens to be corporally challenged.

But Cassidy’s parents have other ideas when they start off their new TV show The Inspecters and tell Cassidy they are heading to Edinburgh, which just happens to be one of the most haunted places in the world.

Her parents can’t see ghosts but Cassidy knows she’s in for an adventure, especially when she hears about a mysterious ghost called The Raven in Red. But Edinburgh’s ghosts are strong, and Cassidy may be in for more than she bargained for, especially from The Raven in Red.

Disguised Form

I think this Pokemon and this book are similar because the Pokemon pretends to be one thing and is really another and it’s the same thing with the villain of the book.
