Have you ever been tested? Questioned with mysteries? Gone somewhere you didn’t want to go? Well, you are going to find all those things in Ghosts Grave by Peg Kehret, with this mystery gone wild.
When Josh is shipped away for the summer to his hysteric Aunt, he needs somewhere to spend his time. He is told about a tree house that is haunted and when he ventures there he finds a ghost! This ghost, Willie, was killed in a coalmine explosion almost 100 years ago, and has been waiting for someone too dig up his leg bones, then, rebury them with the rest of his body, because only then will he be at rest forever. Josh agrees to this lawbreaking task but finds more than he bargains for, as there is a box of cash buried with Willie’s leg! Who left the box there? How far are they willing to go to get it back? Find out in this dramatic suspense that will shatter your boundaries of what is really possible in a mystery book.
I would recommend this book to mystery fanatics and suspense lovers. It is a wonderful tale of relentlessness and suspicions. I enjoyed reading and finishing this book, and recommend it all the way because of the endeared mystery of a boy and supernatural being.
