Book Synopsis
One of the titles in an exciting series of beloved, charming and spooky ghost stories, brought to life by legendary illustrator Seth. When Lady Jane Lynke unexpectedly inherits Bells, a beautiful country estate, she declares she'll never leave the peaceful grounds and sets about making the house her home. But she hasn't reckoned on the obstinate Mr Jones, the caretaker she's told dislikes her changes, yet never seems able to be found.

Trade Review
[This] series of Christmas ghost stories, miniature books chosen and illustrated by the cartoonist Seth... [offers] chills-and charm. -- John Williams * New York Times *
I just bought my set of these and they... are... PERFECT. I hope they do these every year. -- Patton Oswalt
Each of these tiny books-20 volumes now-is cleverly illustrated by the cartoonist known as Seth. Even smaller than a Christmas card, they make fun literary stocking stuffers. -- Ron Charles * Washington Post *
Seth's evocative covers and black-and-white interior illustrations provide the perfect accompaniment to the stories ... Highly recommended for the horror lovers looking for something special in this post-Halloween season. -- Blu Gilliand * Cemetary Dance *
The Seth editions are harbingers of a Christmas ghost story revival. -- Nathalie Akinson * Zoomer *
