Book excerpt: Lily and the Ghost of Peg-Leg Paddy McGee is a MUST read! It is a mystery adventure full of ghosts, suspense and comedy. It is set in southern Missouri along the Mississippi River in the years following the Civil War. The ghost of Peg-Leg Paddy McGee is not a living human and is not yet a ghost, he is somewhere in between the two worlds and is a grotesque looking pirate from long ago during the times of high-seas piracy who was cursed by a voodoo woman. The curse says he is to wander the earth in search of his ill-gotten gold; which he believes holds the secret to lifting the curse and releasing him into the afterlife and all the many years he has been searching, he is slowly decaying. Peg-Leg has a habit of slinging globs of green drool at everyone within reach as he angrily and vigorously pursues the search. Lily Quinn and her friend Ophelia Knudson are given the task of finding the final piece of gold and delivering it to a rough-talking acquaintance who delivers it to Granny Pirogue who delivers it to the rightful recipient; and it is not Peg-Leg Paddy McGee. In the process of finding the last bit of gold the two girls meet numerous ghosts from long ago and some from not too long ago; a would-be murderer and a unusual young girl who has the ability to talk to ghosts. This book is chock full of adventure and ghosts and is a great read for all ages

He assures her that her current level of education will be enough, and that once she is old enough, he'd be happy to appoint her.

When Lily Frost's parents move her from the only home and best friend she's ever known to a country town called Gideon, things are dire. Lily knows no one - but someone seems to know her. And that someone isn't exactly the welcoming type. Upon entering her new attic bedroom, Lily faints. Coming to, she's overcome by the whispers of secrets. Determined to find out why, Lily is thrown into the path of cute local boy Danny. He's not giving anything away, so it's up to Lily to make sense of the watery footprints on her floor and the cold air that constantly seeps into her bones. For Lily, life in this small town is about to get very interesting as she finds herself seeing things she thought belonged to the dead.
