About this ebook
A dark, shiny poster was spread across the board, crowding out school lunch menus and events calendars: NEED TO BANISH A GHOST? CALL THE PARANORMALATOR. I SEEK KNOWLEDGE AND FIND THE SOURCE.
Jackson and Jinx looked at each other. Jinx's mouth hung wide open. Everything about the poster ripped off the Paranormalists.
When a new kid in town tries to get in on Jinx and Jackson's paranormal investigation business, Jinx is furious. But Jinx's quest to shut down her competition will lead them down a dangerous path . . .

The Mayhem on Mohawk Avenue - Megan Atwood
J
inx fired up her computer, excited to respond to the Paranormalists fan who had asked for help with a house haunting. This could be the start of something spectacular! It was exactly what she had wanted—the Paranormalists’ reputation was bringing in clients. And not even from her high school! Her wish had been granted by a reader who called him- or herself Mayhem on Mohawk Ave. She clicked on her e-mail and wrote back, careful to sound enthusiastic but not desperate.
Dear Mayhem,
Thanks for writing. We Paranormalists would love to help—it’s what we live for! Can you be more specific about what types of supernatural activity you’ve noticed? We have a lot of experience and can help in a lot of different ways. Do you want to banish the ghosts too?
We can talk more about rate after we figure out exactly what is needed. Do you want to meet with the Paranomalist team at a coffee shop in town and chat?
Remember, Paranormalists SEEK THE TRUTH AND FIND THE CAUSE. We’re here for you.
Sincerely,
Jinx - Paranormalist Investigation Team
Jinx reread what she wrote, then pressed send with a flourish. Her first Internet client! Things were shaping up. After the last case, Jinx couldn’t help but feel a little shaky, but more determined than ever to investigate more hauntings. She’d started the website and the investigations just to get some notoriety, but she found out fast how much she loved everything about ghost hunting. The equipment, the weird cases, the questions they brought up, and especially working with her best friend, Jackson. She wasn’t quite sure why he was into it so much, but it didn’t matter—they were in it together.
Plus, she was good at it. Really good.
After years of not standing out in anything, finally Jinx had found the thing that made her the best. And she loved it.
She glanced at the clock on her iPhone. Jackson would be there any minute to pick her up for school, and he always hated it when she was late. Which was always. She couldn’t wait to tell him about the e-mail she’d sent, so she sprinted down the stairs and grabbed her coat and backpack to wait outside for him. She was practically humming with energy.
Just as her hand closed on the doorknob, her mom poked her head out of the kitchen and yelled, Jane. Breakfast.
Jinx rolled her eyes as she jogged into the kitchen. I told you to call me Jinx, Mom.
Jinx grabbed a pack of Twizzlers off the counter and turned to walk away. Her mom took the candy from her hands as Jinx walked past and said, eyebrows raised, A real breakfast.
Jinx sighed. She grabbed a banana from the stand and held it up for her mom’s inspection. Her mom sighed back, I guess.
She set her coffee cup in the sink. Better than nothing. What’s the hurry anyway? Jackson’s not here yet.
Jinx gave her mom a big grin. I just love school so much.
Her mom laughed. Jinx noticed she was extra dressed up. She wore a suit with a skirt and heels. Her mom never wore heels. What’s with the outfit?
Jinx asked, her mouth full of banana.
Her mom gave a big smile. Interview today for VP. How do I look?
Jinx shrugged. Like a mom.
I guess that’s good,
her mom said. Just then, Jinx heard the honk that meant Jackson had arrived.
She threw the banana peel on the counter and yelled back, Good luck
as she ran out the door.
Jumping into Jackson’s car, Jinx bounced on the seat and slammed the door.
Careful! Watch it,
Jackson said.
Jinx rolled her eyes for the second time that morning. I forgot about your car’s delicate nature.
Jackson grinned and patted the dashboard. You mean Bertha. Bertha’s done me well, so you should treat her with respect.
Blah blah. Guess what? I wrote that dude back. We may have our fifth case soon.
Jackson snorted. You mean third. You’re not counting those first two with just the two of us? Because those were...
Jinx finished the sentence. Amateur, I know. But they got us to where we are, didn’t they?
"I
