(2) 4-6 In WWII London, ghost Flossie Birdwhistle's job is to watch over the spirits interred at Highgate Cemetery. When Flossie discovers the specter of a German officer spying on English forces, she must balance the care of her spirits with the imperative task of stopping the soldier. Rushby writes with sweetness and charm, and Flossie's interactions with both the living and the dead are imbued with a warm optimism. Bib.
