The Ghost Miner's Treasure
Omtale
Jon and Tania are traveling with the ghost hunter TV show again, this time to the Superstition Mountains of Arizona, where the ghost of an old miner is still looking for his lost mine. The siblings want to help him move on-but to help him resolve the problem keeping him here, they'll have to find the mine. And even then, the old ghost may be having too much fun to leave! It's a good thing Tania can see and talk to him, because the kids will need his help to survive the rigors of a mule train through the desert, a flash flood, and a suspicious treasure hunter who wants the gold mine for himself. HAUNTED John doesn't believe in ghosts. Not even if his mother does, and married a man who researches ghost sightings for his own TV show. Not even when they travel with the show, and visit "haunted" places. But his younger sister Tania claims she can see the ghosts. Deciding to believe her is just the first challenge. Softhearted Tania wants to help the ghosts. First the siblings have to find out what happened to keep each ghost trapped in this world. Then they have to help the ghosts move on-sometimes by letting them take over Tania's body. All this while dealing with their overprotective mother, a stepfather who'd want to exploit Tania's gift, and a production assistant who's totally hot but impossible to impress. Life gets interesting when your sister sees ghosts. And the TV show's shooting season is just beginning.... The Haunted series, for ages 8-12, follows a brother and sister who travel with their parents' ghost hunter TV show. The kids try to help the ghosts, while keeping their activities secret from meddling grownups. The Ghost on the Stairs is set at a Colorado hotel haunted by a ghost bride from the 1880s who is waiting for her missing husband to return. The Riverboat Phantom features a steamboat pilot still trying to prevent a long-ago disaster. In The Knight in the Shadows, a Renaissance French squire protects a sword on display in the Metropolitan Museum in New York City.

Great Book very entertaining, and kept my interest throughout!
"...what I loved most of all, was the way my 4th grade daughter got sucked into the story. She's a reluctant reader so it was a joy to see her completely absorbed in a book."
