When the ghosts of two young children start to haunt a local school, trainee ghost hunters Eve, Clovis and Tom are invited to help investigate the case.

And is the evil Ripper of Whitechapel about to unleash a new campaign of terror from beyond the grave?

For Lil, life at the Squawking Mackerel inn couldn't be more miserable. She's tasked with the sloppiest, grottiest jobs and picked on at every turn. Her only friend is Augustus Scratchy, a cantankerous crow with a habit of stealing. When the dread villain Rotten Bob Hatchet and his gang of cut-throat highwaymen begin attacking travellers on the road, things get really dire. Joining forces with a new servant boy, Ned - and armed with the contents of the inn's lost property cupboard, a pocketful of dumplings and some knicker elastic - Lil comes up with a plot to scare off Rotten Bob.
