Unholy Ghosts is the first novel in the Downside Ghosts series by Stacia Kane.
Almost immediately, I was drawn into the story of Chess Putnam and "The powerful Church of Real Truth". This is an amazing book. Starting off, I knew
I'd like it, but I didn't realize how much. I honestly haven't read a Urban Fantasy I liked this much in a while.

3.5 stars when ever the series finally has a date for the last book I will certainly pick this series back up.
