Alex is the last surviving member of his immediate family and lives in the
family castle with some servants and several ghosts.  The ghosts and he get
along well.  Unfortunately Alex has to sell the castle for financial reasons
and the buyer asks him to guarantee that there are no ghosts in the castle
so Alex has to ask to ask the ghosts vacate.  A multi-millionaire from
Granite Falls, US buys the castle and asks Alex to help supervise the
rebuilding of it in the US.  The ghosts get lonely in their new home and
travel to Granite Falls.  There the ghosts, Alex, and the daughter get
involved in with a mysterious group of thieves who mean to kidnap the
daughter for money.  This 216 page book is a fun ghost mystery in the style
of Ibbotson's other ghost stories.
