Summary
From acclaimed author Linda Urban comes the funny, bittersweet story of a girl and her ghosts - and the welcoming home they find where they least expect it.
California Poppy has been dropped off, yet again, with an unsuspecting relative. This time it’s her eccentric great-aunt Monica, a woman she’s never even met. Aunt Monica has no idea what to do with an 11-year-old, so she puts California to work researching their ancestor, the once-famous etiquette expert Eleanor Fontaine.
California soon discovers that Great-Great-Great-Aunt Eleanor is...not exactly alive and well, but a ghost - and a super sensitive one at that. The grand dame bursts into clouds of dust whenever she loses her composure, which happens quite often. Still, an unexpected four-legged friend and some old-fashioned letter writing make this decidedly strange situation one that California can handle.
Just as California’s starting to feel like she’s found a place for herself, life turns upside down yet again. Thankfully, this time she has some friends almost by her side....
