Jon doesn’t believe in ghosts. Not even if his mother does, and married a man who researches ghost sightings for his own TV show. Not even when they travel with the show, and visit “haunted” places.

But his younger sister Tania claims she can see the ghosts. Deciding to believe her is just the first challenge. Softhearted Tania wants to help the ghosts. First the siblings have to find out what happened to keep each ghost trapped in this world. Then they have to help the ghosts move on—sometimes by letting them take over Tania’s body. All this while dealing with their overprotective mother, a stepfather who’d want to exploit Tania’s gift, and a changing assortment of human troublemakers.

Life gets interesting when your sister sees ghosts. And the TV show’s shooting season is just beginning....

The series, for ages 8-12, debuts in August 2009 with two books, The Ghost on the Stairs and The Phantom Pilot. The Knight in the Shadows will follow in October.

The Ghost on the Stairs is set at a Colorado hotel haunted by a ghost bride from the 1880s who is waiting for her missing husband to return.

The Phantom Pilot features a steamboat pilot still trying to prevent a long-ago disaster.

In The Knight in the Shadows, a Renaissance French squire protects a sword on display in the Metropolitan Museum in New York City.

Haunted will feature three books per year.
