In this exciting series of ghostly encounters, J.J. and Sam test their belief in the supernatural against their fears to uncover some truths about the former inhabitants of the stately Government House manor, once the home of Lieutenant Governors of the Province of Saskatchewan and their staff.
GHOSTS OF GOVERNMENT HOUSE
Are there really ghosts at Government House? Sam and J.J. have heard about the legendary ghost ‘Howie’, but who is he really? And is he responsible for all the mysterious things that happen there?
The two girls, along with Grandma Louise, find out more than they’d bargained for when they set out on their ghost detecting adventures in the historic mansion. Howie is the least of their worries — and so is proving to Sam’s older brother Gabe that ghosts actually exist. What none of them had anticipated is their encounters with so many unexpected apparitions. Who are those ghosts, and why are they there?
GHOSTS IN THE GARDEN
Mysteries abound at Saskatchewan’s Government House, and Sam and J.J. are once again tasked with solving them – before it’s too late.
Things aren’t as they appear at Government House, as Sam and J.J. discover on a field trip when they find themselves discussing mushroom growth with George Watt, the gardener of the property at the turn of the 20th century. In an attempt to uncover what happened, the girls find themselves back in the present, face- to-face with the ghost of a woman who simply mouths the word “watch” to them.
Who is this mysterious woman, and what does she want? In order to solve the mystery, Sam and J.J. must navigate the grounds of Government House (both past and present). And with only the faintest idea of how to return to their time, their forays into the past become dangerous. Can they figure out what the ghost wants before they’re stuck in the past for good?
