When Lord Archibald Smythe is flattened by a chandelier and wakes to find himself a ghost, he's far more annoyed about missing breakfast than being dead. But when his feckless son puts Cheswick Hall - and its priceless relics - up for auction, Archibald must haunt, hustle, and hobnob with fellow phantoms to bring the artefacts home. From the rose gardens of England to penthouses in New York, this delightfully absurd tale of ghostly misadventure, upper-crust eccentricity, and spectral sabotage is a joyous romp through the afterlife of the 1920s aristocracy.
