About this audiobook
The traditional English haunting is turned on its head when a centuries-old ghost encounters a modern American family who simply refuses to be afraid. This delightful comedy of manners explores the clash between ancient tradition and New World pragmatism with warmth and wit. Beneath the hilarious failures of the ghost’s scares lies a touching story of redemption and the power of a pure heart. It is a whimsical tale that finds humor and beauty in the transition from life to the afterlife.
