A Babe In Ghostland
by Lisa Cach
"Delightful Tale of Spritual Mischief"
Posted February 20, 2007
In A BABE IN GHOSTLAND, Lisa Cach creates two delightful
characters: Case Lambert and Megan Barrows. Case and

into their tale of dealing with a house haunted by some
not-so-nice ghosts.

Teri Brisbin began this wonderful trilogy with The DUMONT
