You'd think a ghost grandad would be a great sidekick for a wannabe detective. Unfortunately, if there was a 'being a good ghost' exam, Jay's grandad would fail spectacularly—he hates walking through walls, he can't touch anything, and he's rubbish at haunting.

Since his dad literally did a vanishing act (he's a magician), Jay Patel has turned detective, and now, with the help of his granddad, he's on the case of a dead body that vanished from the library of his Glasgow primary school.

But what do diamonds, blackmail, and dodgy launderettes have to do with it?

Critic reviews

'This is a brilliant book - fast-moving and funny, despite the very villainous villains. The relationship between Jay and his grandad is wonderfully written. A very, very enjoyable book.' (Carousel)
'It's lots of fun and young readers who enjoy a mystery story filled with ghosts and lots of laughs need look no further. The story whizzes along and is guaranteed to be a page-turner.' (Armadillo)
