John and Lisa move into an old house in Princeton, New
Jersey, near where the Battle of Princeton during the Revolutionary War
took place. When exploring their house and barn, someone or
something keeps pushing them. They get scared until they realize
that it is the ghost of an Hessian soldier who died during the War and
that he doesn't want to hurt them. He has something he wants to tell
them. They hear all about the battle and help the soldier find his
horse who was killed in the same battle.
Most of my friends liked this book. I don't like
ghost stories and history is not my favorite subject, so it was not a fast
reading book for me. |
