With their friends and a flop-eared dog as conspirators, Peggy and her brother set out clear the name of Aunt Matilda's long-dead fiance, Calvin, wrongly accused of suicide. What follows is a deliciously creepy, often hilarious, rousing good mystery as the Walnut Hill gang plunges deeper into the fascinating past of Aunt Matilda.
Along the way they discover an amazing fact: the first electric light may have been invented in 1857 -- when Thomas Edison was still a little boy -- their great-great-great-grandfather (in real life, Dr. Alexander Means of old Emory College at Oxford, Georgia).
The location of the lost invention, the secret of the missing diary, and the truth behind Calvin's death are just some of the many mysteries of Aunt Matilda's Ghost.
