'Zac doesn't believe in ghosts. He's never seen any scientific proof of their existence. Clare is sceptical but open minded to the possibility. She likes the idea of ghosts and fairies, even angels. Luke is convinced they have encountered a ghost at Caves Beach. He is the one who is determined to lead them on a ghost hunt to the old ruined lighthouse on the point. Join the Adamson siblings on their second adventure as they discover a ghost desperate to save her father and another just as determined to see her not succeed. Follow the clues along with Zac, Clare and Luke, as you learn about the shipwrecks that crashed off the NSW South Coast and find a long-lost ship's manifest, a lighthouse keeper's journal and all the secrets within a lighthouse lost in time.'

'In the drought-stricken present the only hope is buried in the past.

A lush rainforest canopy now shelters them and the homestead is nowhere in sight. Will they find the proof they need to save the farm or have they discovered much more than they ever thought possible?'
