The heart-stopping third book in the New York Times bestselling Asylum series follows three teens as they take a senior year road trip to one of Americas most haunted cities, uncovering dangerous secrets from their past along the way. With all the thrills, chills, and eerie found photographs that led Publishers Weekly to call Asylum a strong YA debut, Catacomb is perfect for fans for Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children. Sometimes the past is better off buried. Senior year is finally over. After all theyve been through, Dan, Abby, and Jordan are excited to take one last road trip together, and theyre just not going to think about what will happen when the summer ends. But on their way to visit Jordans uncle in New Orleans, the three friends notice that theyre being followed . . . and photographed. Then Dan starts receiving messages from someone he didnt expect to hear from again-someone who died last Halloween. When the trio arrives in New Orleans and the strange occurrences only escalate, Dan is forced to accept that everything that has happened to him in the past year may not be a coincidence, but fate-a fate that ties Dan to a group called the Bone Artists, who have a sinister fascination with notorious killers of the past. Now Dans only hope is that he will make it out of his senior trip alive. Dont miss Madeleine Rouxs all-new gothic horror novel, House of Furies. From School Library Journal Gr 9 Up-After surviving horrifying experiences at a former psychiatric hospital in Asylum (2013) and a creepy carnival in Sanctum (2014, both HarperCollins), Dan, Abby, and Jordan are now seniors planning a final road trip together before going their separate ways. However, their fun attempt at forgetting the past soon goes awry as they clearly are being followed, and Dan starts receiving messages from an old friend who died. Rouxs latest is interspersed with creepy black-and-white photographs. Give this to fans of the series or those who enjoy horror while they eagerly wait for next years Asylum Novellas (a collection of three short stories about the bad guys of previous volumes) and Escape from Asylum (both HarperCollins) (a prequel story diving into Brooklines horrid past). Review “Roux’s use of found photographs, text messages, and excellent chapter hooks will keep readers up late, following the misadventures of the appealingly geeky honor students.” -- Booklist From the Back Cover Sometimes the past is better off buried.
