Ghosts of Harvard by Francesca Serritella

Cady almost destroys what is left of her family when she chooses to go to Harvard just months after her beloved older brother committed suicide there. She goes to the school hoping to find out why he did what he did and spends most of her time seeking out his teachers, friends and roommates looking for answers than going to classes. Eric suffered from schizophrenia and now suddenly, Cady is hearing voices as well. These ghosts seem to be helping her find the answers but, the more she uncovers the more dangerous her life becomes. I loved the storyline working between modern Harvard and some of its illustrious past. The author's choice of this school's history while working in a delicate telling of the trauma impacting a family dealing with mental illness is top-notch. I look forward to reading more fiction from this author as I already enjoy her non-fiction essays with her author mother, Lisa Scottoline. This works for fans of a little bit of history, families in crisis and a touch of the supernatural.
