Publisher's summary

The heart-stopping third book in the New York Times best-selling Asylum series follows three teens as they take a senior-year road trip to one of America's most haunted cities, uncovering dangerous secrets from their past along the way. With all the thrills and chills that led Publishers Weekly to call Asylum "a strong YA debut", Catacomb is perfect for fans for Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

Sometimes the past is better off buried.

Senior year is finally over. After all they've been through, Dan, Abby, and Jordan are excited to take one last road trip together, and they're just not going to think about what will happen when the summer ends. But on their way to visit Jordan's uncle in New Orleans, the three friends notice they're being followed...and photographed. Then Dan starts receiving messages from someone he didn't expect to hear from again - someone who died last Halloween.

When the trio arrives in New Orleans and the strange occurrences only escalate, Dan is forced to accept that everything that has happened to him in the past year may not be a coincidence, but fate - a fate that ties Dan to a group called the Bone Artists, who have a sinister fascination with notorious killers of the past.

Now Dan's only hope is that he will make it out of his senior trip alive.

mystery

This series is the perfect combination of ghost story and mystery. The book was enjoyable as well as the whole series.

addictive series. love it i

I love it and recommend it to anyone who likes suspense. great book!!! I wish the series was longer

I wanted more!

I love the works of Madeleine Roux! I know this story had to end, but I really wanted more. That's just me being selfish though. I can't wait to get into their other books!

Slow Start, predictable ending

The beginning was very slow to start with a bit of review of the
characters from "Asylum". I was glad to know that Dan, Abby and Jordan were in this book, too. The ending was very predictable.... I won't give anything away. Ms. Roux has a great way of writing, using words we use every day. Enjoy!

I feel like the books in this series end too soon.

it's always a good sign about how I feel about a story when I get a sad pit in my stomach as soon as I hear the word "epilogue". I'm quite hooked on the characters by this third book in the series, and while it's classified as a "young adult", I (as a much less young, adult) can relate to the emotions and inner challenges of each of the 3 main characters, worker from my own history as a teen or challenges facing any ages. This 3rd book was great because it didn't depend on the previous books to be thrilling all on its own, but it didn't discount thee precious adventures either.

So-so

Much slower than the previous 2 books. Decent ending, no cliffhanger. Well read. Wouldn't buy, but would use a credit.

entertaining

enjoyable book. I thought this book fit well into the series. I would highly recommend it!
