Just how they fell--or were they pushed?--remains a mystery. And their ghosts haunt the lighthouse to this day. . . .<\/i><br \/>\nGabe tells this story every day when he gives the ghost tour on Toronto Island. He tries to make it scary enough to satisfy the tourists, but he doesn't actually believe in ghosts--until he finds himself face to face with Rebecca Strand.<br \/>\nThe true story of her death is far more terrifying than any ghost tale Gabe has told. Rebecca reveals that her father was a member of the Order, a secret society devoted to protecting the world from \"the wakeful and wicked dead\"--malevolent spirits like Viker, the ghost responsible for their deaths. But the Order has disappeared, and Viker's ghost is growing ever stronger.<br \/>\nNow Gabe and his friends must find a way to stop Viker before they all become lost souls...<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2022-09-09T10:00:00+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"\\nHappy Friday and welcome to my stop on the blog tour for GHOSTLIGHT by Kenneth Oppel!
