Bookroo's summary

Mia's summer in London takes a supernatural turn when she discovers her Aunt Harriet's antique shop is a ghost placement agency. As mysterious events unfold, Mia learns to navigate the spirit world, all while questioning her aunt's secrets and her own origins. Why do objects vanish and reappear? What truths are hidden in the clatter of the night? Mia must uncover the mysteries of Pandora’s Antiques and her own past.

From the publisher

Summer vacation in London turns mysterious and exciting when Mia learns that her aunt’s antique shop is actually a ghost placement agency and she gets training in how to cross over into the spirit world. Welcome to Pandora’s Antiques, with rarities for every occasion. Nowhere does Mia feel so at home as in her Aunt Harriet’s antique shop. How wonderful that she can spend her summer vacation there! But something is wrong in the store. Things disappear as if by magic, furniture that has just been wiped dusts up again in seconds, and there is an eerie number of clatter at night. However, her aunt acts as if this is completely normal. Mia, on the other hand, suspects that Harriet is hiding something from her–just like the question of who her birth parents are.
