Description

Enter the world of The Last Resort! Ghosts from

the story will emerge from the pages of the book, allowing readers

to talk to spirits from the past and help solve the mystery!

Twelve-year-old Lila has two goals for the summer:

Win back the friends who ditched her for being ‘too dramatic’.

Stop being so dramatic.

But then Lila’s estranged Grandpa Clem dies. Now she’ll have to

spend the summer in Ohio while her parents decide what to do with

Grandpa Clem’s creepy Victorian Inn. En route to Ohio,

the family gets into a scary car accident. No one’s hurt, but the

remainder of the trip is … odd. At every rest stop, Lila sees

people no one else can see or hear…

On the day of the funeral, Lila spots an old man sitting in her

grandfather’s favorite chair. It’s Grandpa Clem. And he didn’t

die of a heart attack: he was murdered. Possibly

by someone who wants to control the inn. Because it’s not a normal

bed & breakfast: it’s a portal between the

land of the living and the realm of the dead. A hotel for ghosts

passing onto the afterlife.

With the help of her skeptical brother, Caleb, and their new ghost-obsessed

neighbor, Teddy, Lila must uncover her grandfather’s

killer AND stop the evil spirits desperate to make their

way back into the human world.

A groundbreaking, spooky new series that allows readers to talk

to ghosts and help to solve the mystery themselves!
