Description

The story follows a close‑knit band of girls who love the outdoors and the thrill of new technology. When a sleek touring car rolls up to their quiet town, the adventurous Mollie insists on taking the wheel herself, eager to prove she can handle the modern marvel. Her friends Grace, Amy and the mischievous twins Dodo and Paul cheer her on, their banter and laughter setting a lively tone as they prepare for a day of open‑road excitement.

Their outing leads them far beyond the familiar fields, into the shadowy valley where a crumbling mansion looms, long whispered about as haunted. As night falls, strange lights flicker, doors seem to open on their own, and a mysterious girl disappears, prompting the girls to investigate with curiosity and bravery. Together they navigate muddy trails, puzzling clues, and a few spooky tricks, discovering that the real mystery may have more to do with human greed than ghosts.
