Resumen del Editor

Shane Ryan and his ghostbusting partner, Frank Benedict, have been killing ghosts all over New England. He's always thought the jobs were random until he runs into The Watchers, an elite group who's decided Shane is a threat to their own sinister plans. Their leader, Harlan Canus, sends Shane a gruesome message that can't be ignored.

Marie Lafontaine joins Shane and Frank as they descend on Borgin Keep, which is set in the lush hills of Vermont. They discover The Watchers have a few ghastly secrets of their own, hidden within the chilling castle. Emmanuel Borgin, long dead, has an uneasy alliance with Watchers. Alliance or not, Shane is determined to finish the job...even if it means destroying Harlan right along with the deadly Emmanuel!

The trio searches the hidden passages and secret rooms for Emmanuel's bones, realizing Borgin Keep is a shifting house of horrors. From the flesh-eating undead to faceless demons, Emmanuel throws his worst supernatural minions at the crew. Shane knows he's got to stop Emmanuel and Harlan or more innocents will die, suffering unspeakable torture, and agonizing deaths.

Failure is not an option, but annihilating the uncanny ghost and his grisly castle could be the last job Shane ever completes.

Amazing book!

I did not think I could be spooked but I dare say mr ripley has done it !ghosts ‘ cannabals what horror can be next ? Keep them coming I will keep reading . Ron Ripley is a true master of horror !

Gruesome place

I think this book in the series is the most horrific so far, and Borgin Keep is a chilling place! We find out what happens to members of The Watchers when they are no longer effective or needed, and it isn't pretty. Shane and Frank must once again do what they do best - battle the restless dead - but this time things are even more complicated by their living enemies. I was on edge a couple of times, wondering how things could possibly work out! We also see Shane sinking further into despair as his guilt and grief tear him apart. I'm worried what will happen to him...

Poor Shane!

If you could sum up Borgin Keep in three words, what would they be?

Beware the Watchers

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes. There was so much action, so much danger for Shane to watch out for. Instead of danger coming from one quarter, there're deadly situations being thrown at him from all directions. Poor Shane can't let his guard down for a moment! And the way Eloise is changing...It's disturbing.

What about Thom Bowers’s performance did you like?

Bowers' voice will forever be Shane's voice for me. As well as Frank's and Carl's. He reads so well and with so much feeling. His reading sucks me into the book as well as if I were reading it myself.

If you could rename Borgin Keep, what would you call it?

The Watchers

Any additional comments?

I was disappointed with Marie's role in the story. At times I wondered why she was in the story at all since she didn't contribute to it. I loved her role in the first two books but with this book and the previous one she's dead weight. There's no real point to her and it probably would've been better without her. Also, I'm not sure why her and Shane's relationship got all strained and antagonistic. We first see it in the last book and then again in this one, but I don't get it since I they seemed on amiable terms when we last see them in the 2nd book. At least, I don't remember seeing them together after the 2nd book. But nothing's mentioned about their friendship getting rocky. These are my only qualms.

Borgin Keep

Ron Ripley takes this book to a new level of creepy ! He's one of the beat horror writers I've read .

Shocks, Jolts, and Frights...Oh My!

The characters become increasingly twisted as the series continues. I especially enjoy the evolution of Shane's personality in each book. Actually, there are no static characters. Each event leaves a mark. I am going to be sorry to read the next book (#9) since it is the last one of the Berkley tales.

Excellent story

I read the Berkley Street Series books 1 - 9 and Ron Ripley really knows how to take you down a path with a lot of unexpected twists. Thom Bowers adds even more life to the characters in the audio versions. Well done all around!.

getting to the end

love this series and only 1 book left. love listening to the reader and love the stories. Finishing will be good and sad all at the same time.

Haunting

I went from sitting on the edge of my seat to biting my nails to bring surprises by things that happened. Totally loved it.

Shane is not someone you want to make angry!

This is my favorite horror series thus far, and each book brings more layers to the world. I am both excited and sad to get to the conclusion of Shane's escapades.
