Waiting on Wednesday (46)

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. 

My pick this week:
Spirit and Dust
Rosemary Clement-Moore
Release date: May 14th, 2013
by Delacorte Books for Young Readers


 
Speaking to the dead is no new thing for Daisy Goodnight. The living, on the other hand, can occasionally be a problem. Especially when they knock you out, kidnap you, and force you to be their magical police dog.

Donald Maguire—mob boss, extraordinaire—has a missing daughter and Daisy is his first choice to track her down. But he didn't actually ask her for help. When she woke up in his guest bedroom, she was told. But why her? And who—or what—in the world is the Black Jackal?

Spirits? Mob boss? Kidnapping? Missing girl? What's not to love! Seriously!

PS: There's a different synopsis on Amazon that gives a bit more away.

What did you pick this week?
Link me up! :)
