Swamp Witch
Ghost Hunters Book 4
In
this spooky-fun mystery, thirteen-year-old psychic Alex and his
paranormal investigator friends face their biggest challenge yet: the
hospital haunting. The friends are convinced that this surge of
ghostly activity is far more devious than the “experts”
suspect—and that only the ancient magic of an elusive swamp witch
can put the ghosts to rest. Finding the witch means braving the
Louisiana swamps full of gators and snakes, but if Alex and his team
fail, New Orleans could become a realm of the dead.
