Bookroo's summary

Alexander is drawn to a mysterious light in the barn, suspecting a prank. But when slimy footprints and eerie sounds emerge, he encounters a ghostly girl with a dire warning. As danger looms, Alexander must decipher the haunting's secrets before it's too late. Will he heed the ghost's message and prevent further tragedy?

From the publisher

“More death! More, if you do not stop it. Others lost, like me in the black water. Save them!”When Alexander first sees the eerie glow in the dormer window of the barn, it sets his heart pounding. And when he ventures into the barn in the dark of night, his breath catches in his throat. Suddenly Blossom Culp’s words come back to him: “You can make contact with the Unseen….” Now there’s a girl ghost standing right in front of him, telling him of great danger ahead. But is there time for Alexander to act on her warning?
