When five best friends dare each other to explore a crumbling old mansion before it's torn down, they expect dust and cobwebs - not a family of gentle, funny ghosts who've been waiting sixty years for someone to notice them. As the kids sneak back again and again, they uncover a decades-old secret: the mansion's gruff, lonely caretaker is the only thing standing between this family and the rest they've longed for. But some kinds of love are harder to let go of than others, and with a demolition deadline looming, the kids will have to find the courage - and the heart - to help an old man say goodbye.
A story about friendship, grief, and the surprising ways we learn to hold on and let go, for anyone who's ever wished the people they love didn't have to leave
