His voice was almost strangled in his throat as he managed to shout, ‘Dad!’” Welcome to a spine-tingling yet heart-warming father-and-son story of supernatural thrills, spills and chills! Cameron and his dad have a secret: they hunt ghosts together whenever they can. But Dad has a bigger ambition – to invent the ultimate spirit detector and make a fortune. The only thing is, nobody can know what they’re up to yet. Especially Mum. She can’t all that spooky rubbish. Dad’s device helps them to see spirits everywhere – from changing rooms to museums, lifts, cars, clouds, sheds, leaves and even online games. But as their encounters get weirder and weirder, a demon accuses them of trapping its son. They must return him, or Cameron will have to be the replacement.

GO HOME.’ Drips started to run down from the ends of the letters.”
