Description

Are there really ghosts in Government House? The lights suddenly go out one night while best friends Sam and J.J. are touring Government House in Regina. What's worse, mysterious footsteps head straight toward them! Is it the legendary ghost, Howie? And is he responsible for all the strange things happening in the historic mansion? The two girls find out more than they'd bargained for when they set out on their ghost-detecting adventures in the former vice-regal residence.
