The Slavery Ghosts

About the Book

Jake, thirteen, and his sister, twelve, live at Tapalyla Hill, a Mississippi mansion built before the Civil War. In their garden they meet Sarantha, a ghost who’ll do anything to free her daughter, Darcy, from the evil beneath the house. Jake and Livy pass through a timegate to attempt the rescue. They will bring back a far better grasp of their own family and culture than they could have imagined.
