About this listen

Jason Arnopp - author of acclaimed cult hit The Last Days of Jack Sparks - returns with a razor-sharp thriller for a social-media obsessed world. Prepare to never look at your phone the same way again....

Kate Collins has been ghosted.

She was supposed to be moving in with her new boyfriend, Scott, but all she finds after relocating to Brighton is an empty apartment. Scott has vanished. His possessions have all disappeared.

Except for his mobile phone.

Kate knows she shouldn't hack into Scott's phone. She shouldn't look at his Tinder, his calls, his social media. But she can't quite help herself.

That's when the trouble starts. Strange, whispering phone calls from numbers she doesn't recognize. Scratch marks on the walls that she can't explain. And the growing feeling that she's being watched.

Kate refuses to leave the apartment - she's not going anywhere until she's discovered what happened to Scott. But the deeper she dives into Scott's digital history, the more Kate realizes just how little she really knows about the man she loves.

Critic reviews

"The best cross-genre thriller I've read in a long, long time. Twisty, creepy and absolutely absorbing." (Sarah Pinborough)

"A helter-skelter collision of social media and the supernatural. Hugely enjoyable." (Chris Brookmyre)

"A fiendishly smart exploration of obsession and social media addiction, Ghoster, will haunt you in more ways than one. Compulsively readable, terrifying and laced with Jason Arnopp's trademark wit, you'll never look at your phone in the same way again." (Sarah Lotz)

"A magnificently twisted and utterly unnerving tale that taps the rawest of our collective fears about social media.... Genuinely unsettling and oddly provocative, this is a weird and worthy addition to Arnopp's growing canon." (Publishers Weekly)

Let yourself go with this one. Neurotic people get haunted. If you enjoyed Last Days of JS, you’ll love this one! Much more clever than LDoJS. H.P. Lovecraft would like this.

Perfect ghost story

Better than “The Last Days of Jack Sparks?”It’s not even close in my opinion. As a Stephen King and hardcore Japan Pargin fan, this one is a great effort, but intriguing it ain’t.

It’s not even kind of equal to TLDOJS. I LOVED his other book that I’ve read but I don’t think this one is nearly as clever or as thought out as the other mentioned.

This one builds too slowly to the spooky ending and it is predictable for a hardcore sci-fi/fantasy reader. Worth a read? Sure, for a beginner but your meager credits would be better spent on Joe Hill or Jason Pargin or Jack Townsend or obviously King Stephen Kings stuff.

You can message Kiki Von Mermaid on FB or Instagram and I’ll send you my list of bests and worsts and in-betweens for fantasy and science-fiction and I’ve been listening for a hot minute and I have a good list of the weird and wild and dark and funny. I’ll share with you, my weirdos!! Kisses.

Fine, but not as good as “The Last Days….”

Seriously the best! 'He's inspired me to write my own book which has been so amazing. couldn't thank him enough for being such an inspiration. Jack sparks and this book had me scared for days and the writing and creativity is outstanding in all of his work. Thank you Arnopp, awaiting for your next work ❤️❤️❤️😘🙏🙏🙏

Had such potential but then just got weird.. I was really into the beginning and Even parts of the middle but it was hard to follow with and disappointing ending

Great beginning

Read on a recommendation. Doable just not the genre I’m usual pulled toward. But storyline was worth the time spent reading.

Just not my type of book.

Good book but not as good as his other book The Last Days of Jack Sparrow.

Good book

I realize that there are some parallels with Last Days of Jack Sparks, and all I can say is what an ending! definitely worth the wait. the way that the author plays with space and time is amazing. in LDoJS, I experienced some real terror with "Mimi", but in Ghoster, "The Master" was just as terrifying.

Awesome

I'm glad I didn't listen to the bad review. This book is every bit as good as Jack Sparks. I hope this author writes a hundred more books. Jason Arnopp you have a gift.

My only complaint is it's not longer.

Ugh. I was so excited to read this because I LOVED The Last Days so much. But I just can't. I don't think I've ever been more annoyed at a protagonist in my life. I think the premise could have been really good, but he left the reveal way too late, instead focusing on the protagonists mind games. I do hope that he keeps writing because his ideas are very original and Jack Sparks maybe one of the best horror books I've ever read. But this one just ain't it.

Go read The Last Days of Jack Sparks instead

I grabbed this book immediately after it was released, having absolutely loved The Last Days of Jack Sparks. Unfortunately for me, the thing which drew me in to that last novel by Arnopp seems to have been something other than his writing.

The only way I can think to describe this book is this: I'm bored. As I write this review, I've got about an hour left, and I honestly don't know that I'll finish it. The plot is so meandering and seemingly unfocused, it's eleven hours of back and forth without much progress forward. After all that buildup, the "big reveal" is anything but. I literally scoffed like a lunatic while listening at my desk at work. Just terribly, horribly disappointing. Very little of this book even spooked me, let alone made me feel uneasy or scared, while Arnopp's previous work gave me nightmares.

If you're looking for more Jack Sparks, I'm afraid you're not going to find it here. Just a lame attempt at horror screaming "CelL PhoNeS aRE BAaaDdD!!1!".

Edit: Got through the last hour and I wish I hadn't, because I'm never getting that time back. The ending is the nail in the coffin, biggest disappointment I've had in a long while.

Such a Departure
