Adopted by Ghosts [EPUB ebook] 

My story starts with an author who has decided she wanted to write a
ghost story. Honey moved into a mansion, which was supposed to have
wall to wall ghosts. When she set eyes on the place, she thinks she has
been had until action begins to start.
The ghosts do a few things in the hope of scaring her witless to send her
screaming. But their plans backfi re. They adopt Honey as a member of
their family, like they did in the past, when a homeless boy strayed into
their over grown garden to hide. He legally becomes the son of all the
ghosts.
Elden grew up under their guidance and is now nearing the end of his
life. The arrival of Honey gives the ghosts a new interest instead of
playing pranks in unsuspecting peoplelike zooming around the street
in a stolen police car. Now, they have a purpose, which was taken from
them, when the young son grew up and didnt want to be a pirate chase
any more. He became a lawyer.
In the story, there are many characters, real or ghost, to keep the reader
enthralled to the very last page. This is not a scary ghost story. These
ones mix with, and help, the towns people.
