Dear Adventurer:
If you were a ghost and could haunt any house in the world, where would it be? On a beach in Europe? Atop an island volcano? In your home town? Meet Edgar Font. Edgar only knew he didn’t want to haunt The Sterling Oaks Retirement Village. He lived there and the halls were already crowded with bored ghosts.
In his younger days, Mr. Font had been a fearless explorer and had done what others have only dreamt of and seen things most only believe to be fantasy. Now he needed to find a house as unique and exciting as he was.

REVIEWS
“At last, a young adult midgrade series to take the place of Lemony Snicket, and it’s about 1,000% better. This book was so positive. Grandpa Edgar pushes his grandchildren beyond their fear and self-confidence limits, teaching them how to take on the world and even the spirit realms. I loved the author’s illustrations and how the kids learn to stand on their own two feet with the help of a family mentor. We rate this excellent new start to a series five hearts.”

“Patrick H.T. Doyle has delivered a truly new and refreshing alternative to the books currently available. This could easily be a review filled with all the raving adjectives, because each and every one has been earned. Excellent, engaging, suspense-filled, action-packed; I could list them all. However, it is far more important to point out that this is not just a children’s book or for young adults. For all the parents out there who have searched for a great story to read to your children before bed, this is it! I have no doubt, children everywhere will be asking: “Is it bed-time yet?” And for all the adults who enjoy discovering a new author that has truly created something different, look no further, you’ve found it!”
