The Markwell Manor Mystery: A DJ Benson Adventure

July 21, 2010 - PRLog -- What do you do when you inherit a mansion that already has residents? And what if those residents happen to be ghosts?

This DJ Benson Adventure has the inquisitive 11-year-old DJ and his family inheriting a mansion in Sydney, Australia, courtesy of their mysterious Uncle Clive. But, moving from the countryside to the big city is proving to be difficult for the Bensons, especially since the ghosts in their new home don’t want them there.

In The Markwell Manor Mystery, Uncle Clive’s historic mansion is haunted, and the spirits are not anxious for company! The manor was named after Thelonious Markwell, a 19th-century sea captain. The ghosts receive unwanted help to scare off the new owners from Uncle Clive’s former caretaker, who has reasons for wanting the house all for himself.

So what really happened to Uncle Clive? Is the house really haunted? And who—or what—is behind the plot to keep DJ and his family away from the mansion? Chilling and thrilling, young readers will get goose bumps in this imaginative page-turning mystery!
