This fast-paced, charming supernatural adventure finds Gabriel and his friends in search of ghosts, driven by the loss of his tía — a grief empowering him with the belief he has the ability to communicate with the dead.

Book Description
Gabriel Navarro can see ghosts. At least, that’s what he’s always believed, but after his beloved tía dies, he can’t seem to reach her. Feeling alone and lost, he stumbles into a mysterious encounter on a school field trip and suddenly finds himself the new best friend and business partner of his eccentric classmate Clementine.
Together, they form Psychic Investigators, Evil Exterminators—Rustin Middle School’s first ghost-hunting organization! Their mission statement? To prove once and for all that Gabe is a psychic and ghosts are real. But first, they’ll need to actually find some ghosts…which, despite Clem’s flawless business plan, is not easy. For Clem, the search is the thrill of a lifetime, but for Gabe, it hits a little closer to home. Can they keep their partnership together long enough to make a real connection to the world beyond?
Psychic Investigators, Evil Exterminators will be available wherever books are sold, as a full-color softcover graphic novel with flaps (ISBN: 9781603095648) as well as a digital edition, on September 16, 2025. For more information please visit the Top Shelf web site.
