The Ghost Of Whitehall Hill

After being warned to avoid Whitehall Hill by older residents in a small Florida town, teen detectives Mickey, Danny and Charli toss caution to the wind, only to find themselves in the midst of a tragic secret which has stalked two generations. New author D. Weldon Brantley takes readers on a ride of discovery and suspense in The Ghost of Whitehall Hill. These amateur young sleuths defy a community's superstition to tackle a three-decade old mystery of strange disappearances to confront ghosts which appear every Halloween in a run down, abandoned mansion. Defying the forces of nature, the teens uncover a trail of clues linking President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Spanish Flu epidemic, a secret war weapon, and a World War II hero with a violent past. Danny, Charli, Mickey, and their parents must work together to discover the identity of the ghost. The Ghost of Whitehall Hill readers learn that living in a small Florida town may not be as boring as the young heroes first believed, thus, the CrackerJack Kids Agency is born.

Edgar Wallace was a hugely successful author who over the course of his career produced some 173 books and seventeen plays. These were largely adventure narratives with elements of crime or mystery, and usually combined a bombastic sensationalism with hammy violence. First published in 1929, 'The Ghost of Down Hill' is one of his best-remembered novellas. Many of the earliest ghost stories and tales of hauntings, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
