A ghostly mystery in the town library

When the demolition of Kaz’s haunt separates him from his ghost family, he encounters Claire, a girl who can see ghosts. Their friendship brings together two very different perspectives as they investigate a haunting at the library where Claire lives with her family. The question of whether the ghost might be connected to Kaz’s missing relatives ties the library mystery to his search for family. Friendship, separation, and a shared investigation shape this illustrated young chapter-book story.
