About the book

Now a major Netflix series!

Lucy has left Lockwood & Co. A freelance operative, she is hiring herself out to other agencies - agencies that might value her ever-improving skills.

But now Lockwood needs her help.

Penelope Fittes, leader of the well-renowned Fittes Agency wants Lockwood & Co. - and only them - to locate and remove the 'Source' for the legendary Brixton Cannibal.

It's a tough assignment. Made worse by the tensions between Lucy and the other agents - even the skull is treating her like a jilted lover!

What will it take to reunite the team? Black marketeers, an informant ghost, a Spirit Cape that transports the wearer, and mysteries involving their closest rivals may just do the trick.

But not all is at it seems. And it's not long before a shocking revelation rocks Lockwood & Co. to its very core . . .

'Stroud is a genius' - Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series.

    I believe this is so far my favorite book of the series. It was entertaining and full of action and I loved the character development, and it once AGAIN ended with a cliffhanger. can't we wait to read the next (and last) book of the series. :}

    I've been shaking my head and asking the universe "why??" a couple of times during certain plotlines in the Creeping Shadow and there were certainly times I questioned narrative choices or choices made by characters BUT as weird as the last twist was, that "bomb" dropped (too soon?) at the end really did it for me. It has been long since a cliffhanger has done me this dirty so 4* with good conscience. There were some pretty weird plotlines thrown in but there's only one book left in the series so I guess if it's gonna get wild, you gotta start eventually. I've got loads of questions and expectations for the last book (in a good way) and I'm actually excited. Wish I could've read this series as a teenager. 15yo me would've loved Skull.
