the Grub-And-Stakers House a Haunt

A widow meets a ghost with an appetite for treasure, liquor, and revenge .

Zilla
Trott is pouring her cat some chamomile tea when the drifter appears in
her kitchen. He is grubby and crude -- not at all the kind of person
you'd usually find in the pleasant town of Lobelia Falls -- but
something about him intrigues the aging widow. Perhaps it's his rugged
good looks, or the way he seems to come from another time and place. Or
perhaps it's the fact that he's been dead for nearly a century.
When
Lobelia Falls was in its rough-and-tumble frontier infancy, Hiram
Jellyby was the best mule driver the town had ever seen, until an
argument over a hidden cache of gold left him bleeding to death in a
back alley. He returns in spectral form to secure a proper burial, and
finds that in modern-day Lobelia Falls, no one knows more about turning
the soil than Zilla Trott's gardening buddies -- all members of Dittany
Monk's fearless Grub-and-Stake Gardening and Roving Club.
