ElsBeth and the Privateer: Book II in the Cape Cod Witch Series

A 2014 Moonbeam Award medalist, and described by Midwest Book Review as "about as fine a middle school fantasy as you could get." When their ancestral lands in the Highlands are threatened, three ancient ghosts of the castle need one of their clan from the living world. They call the young Cape Cod witch across the sea. ElsBeth has a personal calling to protect the natural world, and her own need to know more about the family line. Drawn deep into the present danger and the mysteries of the old country, she is in well above her magic level.
