Raising the Dead

This is the second in a series of books about Charlotte Silver who is 17. Her parents are experts in investigating alleged paranormal phenomenon and she is her father's assistant on his lectures.

Noah is a guy that she likes.

In the first book, Charlotte had contacted a dead girl from the past. At the present, a terrible storm causes so much water to fall that some coffins from an old cemetery get carried away by the water. The coffins were from the Civil War era.

Normally that would not be that much of a problem, but her parents investigate and it turns out the coffins have false bottoms and contain materials from the Civil War. Complicating things is an attack on the guy whose house bordered on the cemetery which might possibly be an actual ghoul.

Further messing up matters is a local museum that think it's their divine right to lay claim to anything dug up from the ground and they think all the artifacts that are uncovered belong to them when, if anything, they belong to the guy whose house bordered the cemetery and whose ancestors were the ones buried that.

It's a good book, although I would have liked to have seen some more on the artifacts uncovered, especially the documents.
