Twelve-year-old Gus Greenburg can see ghosts; in fact, he uses this paranormal superpower to help them "go on." But when Gus and his mom move into an old mansion on the mysterious and remote Nameless Island, he meets a ghost that's set out to hurt him. Bestselling author Carly Anne West weaves a spooky and thrilling series opener in this spine-tingling tale about mystery, family, and all things paranormal.

After his dad goes missing and his mom is hired to restore an old building called the Rotham Manor, twelve-year-old Gus Greenburg and his mom move to a quaint, secluded island called Nameless. Gus was hoping for a new start on the island (despite throwing up on the boat ride there . . .Β twice),Β but a mysterious ghost has another idea. Throw in a mean kid who hides rats in the manor, two new friends, an eclectic island chef who's competing to be on a reality TV show, and Gus's power to talk to the dead . . . well, that's a lot of chaos for one kid!Β 

Gus needs to find out the identity of the mysterious ghost – and fast – or else he might be doomed to the same lethal fate.

That is, if the island’s signature "Heavenly Hash" dish doesn't get to him first.

The Ghosts of Nameless Island is the firstΒ book in a new trilogy from bestselling author Carly Anne West. It's infusedΒ with Carly Anne West's signature witΒ and humor, and spooky enough for fans of Claribel Ortega's Ghost Squad,Β Scott Cawthon's Five Night's at Freddy's, and Carly's own Hello NeighborΒ series.Β This book also features black-and-white spot illustrations throughout.Β

About the Author

Carly Anne West is the author of the YA novels The MurmuringsΒ and The BargainingΒ and the Hello NeighborΒ middle grade series of novels. She is also a collaborator on theΒ Fazbear FrightsΒ novels with Five Nights at Freddy's. Carly Anne lives in Seoul, Korea with her husband, two kids, a very small cat, and a very large dog.

Teo Skaffa currently lives in Istanbul but is from a village in the Netherlands which you’ve probably never heard of, and for good reason. He loves music, video games, cinema, and swimming. He hates drawing in accurate perspective and room temperature watermelon (cold is fine though, delicious even). Coming from a traditional background, he now focuses on digital illustration and storytelling. Most of his inspiration comes from that short moment when you wake up and don’t quite understand what is happening yet, where he sees brief flashes of images and ideas which he turns into colorful illustrations.
