Come enter the amazing world of Olivia Kidney. At once moving and laugh-out-loud funny, it will forever capture your imagination. What is it with Olivia Kidney and ghosts? No matter where she goes, they follow. Even when she and her klutzy handyman of a father start over in a new brownstone in New York City--owned by the mad, bad, and dangerous Ansel Plover--there is no escape from the weirdness that is Olivia Kidney's life. Their new living room is entirely submerged underwater, and Olivia has to navigate in a boat past bobbing furniture and snapping turtles just to get to her bedroom. Complete strangers show up in the middle of the night to practice bumping into walls! And then, of course, there are the ghosts. This house holds secrets; lots of them--Olivia can feel it. Why, she wonders, was she invited to live here?
