Jack is back. Wilson's engaging, self-employed, off-the-books fixer, Repairman Jack, soon to be featured in a movie entitled "Repairman Jack", returns for another intense, action-packed adventure just a little over the border into the weird. In Astoria, Queens, New York, the lively ethnic neighborhood just across the river from Manhattan, a house is being haunted by the ghost of a 9-year-old girl in riding clothes. More than 2 decades before, she'd been abducted from stables in Brooklyn. Now it's up to Jack to uncover the truth of her story and liberate the pretty blond spirit. Perhaps the answer is in the odd little store called the Shurio Coppe? Ah, but that would be talling. Jack does things no human being should be able to do, but we watch, in horrified fascination, as the forces of evil seem about to triumph and fill the world with eternal darkness. And then--but you must read the book.
