When they ring the bell at the house with the dusty windows and tarnished nameplate to inquire about the advertised Saturday Person, Thruppence and Tim dont know what theyre getting themselves into.

As it seems that children are particularly magnetic to ghosts and supernatural beings, Thruppence and Tim are hired to join the ministrys ghost-catching team. And although neither of them is scared by talk of ghosts or monsters, they are unprepared for what theyre about discover!Filled with fun, humor, and twists and turns, this is the perfect book for anyone who loved Harry Potter and who is looking for something similar to Neil Gaimans The Graveyard Bookjust not quite as scary.
