Sinopse

Summer 1987: Mark Prewitt’s only priority is to avoid his dad’s new wife and waste time with his friends, but idle nights are the devil’s playground. When his friends decide to pull a cruel prank on the reclusive and strange Farrow sisters, Mark regrets caving in to peer pressure.
 
Wanting to make amends, Mark is drawn into the mysterious world of the Farrow girls, finding a kindred spirit in the middle sister, George. She is unlike anyone he’s ever known; a practicing witch who uses folk magic to protect her family. They bond over books, loneliness, and homemade spells. She even invites Mark to join a séance to contact her dead sister, who died under mysterious circumstances.
 
Keeping their relationship secret, Mark learns that living a double life in a town this small is impossible. When the secret is exposed, and his friends plot to punish the witch sisters for stealing one of their own, Mark is forced to choose between these two worlds.
 
“Filled with evocative and captivating scenes, strong female characters, and an engaging narration, readers will become engrossed immediately, while the threat and fear at the heart of this story, satisfyingly, sneaks up on them.” —Booklist, starred
 
“This coming-of-age horror relies less on supernatural terror than combustible human elements, but features sympathetic characters and sharp plotting. Highly recommended.”—Library Journal

Gulliver's Ghost - Revenge is the sequel to the popular ghostly mystery Gulliver's Ghost. Cut-Throat Gulliver was a real pirate plundering ships and settlements in and along Nova Scotia's Bay of Fundy in the late 1600 and early 1700s.  The novel, except for Gulliver, is fictional but the action, mystery, suspense and thrills are real. Matt Lasalle and his sidekick, Constable Bobby Brennan are members of the famed Royal Canadian Mounted Police. In Gulliver's Ghost, the two cops investigated the deaths of two American fortune hunters seeking Gulliver's treasure. They end up in a cave in Gulliver's Cove facing a pirate's ghost and his killer wife. Gulliver's Cove - Revenge takes up the tale as another treasure hunter tempts fate to hunt for pirate gold at Gulliver's Cove.  Gulliver's wife and daughter are desperate to protect their eternal family from Gulliver's revenge over the loss of his plunder. Matt Lasalle and Bobby Brennan are again faced with investigating suspects they can't reveal to anyone. It's a case that takes the cops - and the supernatural beings - from a cavern in Nova Scotia to a castle in Toronto..  Gulliver's Ghost and Gulliver's Ghost - Revenge are thrilling reads for those who savour stories of pirates, ghosts, crime and cops all presented in two exciting audiobooks.
