Description

Blurb:
Meet Dinah, a disturbed young girl who has been sent to the small town of Bizenghast to live with her aunt following the tragic death of her parents. She is thought by her aunt to have some sort of mental illness, as Dinah believes the house to be haunted. Only Dinah is aware of the restless spirits, which only feeds the doctor’s and her aunt’s suspicions about Dinah’s well-being. The house was a mental hospital, then a school for juvenile delinquents. The ghosts know Dinah can see them and they won’t leave her alone. A recluse, she sneaks out with her only friend, Vincent, and together they discover a lost graveyard. There they find a sunken mausoleum, where Dinah reads from a stone engraving. This act binds her to a contract requiring Dinah to release spirits stuck somewhere between an unhappy life and a peaceful afterlife. If she refuses, she will face an eternity of hell. So Dinah begins her quest of "cleaning" the vaults, crypts and graves of lost souls, all the while struggling with the haunts at home and suspicions of her growing mental illness.
Klappentext:
Nachdem Dinah ihre Eltern bei einem Autounfall verloren hat und zu ihrer Tante ins trostlose Nest Bizenghast ziehen muss, verwandelt sich ihr Leben in einen Albtraum. Erst kann sie plötzlich Geister sehen und wird von ihrer Tante für schizophren erklärt. Und dann entdeckt sie auf einer nächtlichen Tour mit ihrem Kumpel Vincent ein versunkenes Mausoleum und liest dessen Inschrift, womit sie nichtsahnend einen Vertrag mit der Unterwelt schließt: Fortan ist sie dazu verpflichtet, jede Nacht eine verlorene Seele des Friedhofs zu erlösen, um nicht selbst als Geist zu enden. Eine schwierige und gefährliche Aufgabe, da einige der Toten etwas dagegen haben und am Anfang jeder Mission ein ganz besonderes Rätsel steht.
