Ishmael Jones investigates a haunted house . . . but is haunted by
his own past in the latest of this quirky paranormal mystery
series. "That house is a bad place. Bad things happen there . . ."
Set high on top of Widows Hill, Harrow House has remained empty for
years. Now, on behalf of an anonymous prospective buyer, Ishmael
and Penny are spending a night there in order to investigate the
rumours of strange lights, mysterious voices, unexplained
disappearances, and establish whether the house is really haunted.
What really happened at Harrow House all those years ago? Joined by
a celebrity psychic, a professional ghost-hunter, a local historian
and a newspaper reporter, it becomes clear that each member of
'Team Ghost' has their own pet theory as to the cause of the
alleged haunting. But when one of the group suddenly drops dead
with no obvious cause, Ishmael realizes that if he can find out how
and why the victim died, he will have the key to solving the
mystery.
It is 2553, and the three-decade-long Covenant War that defined a
generation has suddenly drawn to a close. Yet in the remotest parts
of human space, tensions remain that threaten to overflow into
another full-scale conflict. Beneath the surface of the planet Gao
lies a vast cavern system renowned for its therapeutic effects and
rumored miraculous cures. But now Gao natives are turning up
brutally murdered down there-violent acts that happen to coincide
with the recent arrival of a UNSC research battalion protected by
Spartan Blue Team, led by the renowned Spartan-II Fred-104.Maverick
detective Veta Lopis of the Gao Ministry of Protection is only
trying to do her job as the Special Inspector assigned to catch a
serial killer-one who is possibly hiding within the Spartan
ranks-but she never anticipates the situation spiraling out of
control into an all-out crisis. When Gao is revealed to harbor
ancient Forerunner technology that could solidify the UNSC's
military supremacy for centuries to come, Insurrection loyalists
within the planetary government will do anything-even align with a
vicious faction of what remains of the Covenant-to ensure that
never happens...
