Pond Ghost — Alene Adele Roy

Pond Ghosts are discovered at the Hathaway ancestral home. A mysterious and beautiful gold and silver medallion is found, and devoted friendships develop in Magnolia Gardens and at Dragonfly Pond Place when eight students meet after school at Rachael's Sanctuary. Supervised by Rachael Hathaway and Eddie Turner, a soon-to-be-wed young couple, the group from Velvet Villa Village faces challenges when unexpected emergencies arise. The Ice House is broken into, food for the Halloween Harvest Hosting is missing, and Rachael's engagement ring is lost. Notes from an unknown sender, plus, the other ghost, also plague this circle of friends, along with rumors of some unwanted guests soon approaching. Yet, the discovery of an ancient, secret cave, a hospital vigil, viewing wildlife, a romantic spaghetti dinner, the garden renovation, a Dragonfly Pond Fashion Show, the thrill of a surprise guest on Halloween, and songs bring merriment, fun, hope, new beginnings, and direction in this heartwarming saga. Together, Rachael, Eddie, and The Grand Group make decisions and discoveries which will change their future and their lives, and those within the community, in a season of surprises and memories to treasure.
