"When Cisco Collins returns to his childhood home for Christmas, 32 years after helping save the town from the ancient pirate ghost Deadman's Grin, he realises that being a childhood hero is nothing like the movies... Struggling with single parenthood in the wake of his divorce, Cisco isn't really in the festive spirit, and it doesn't help that none of his friends seem to recall their battle against the deadly pirate ghost, or that his dark power seems to be creeping back into the world. With the aid of a talking fox, an enchanted forest, and some magical 8-Bit videogame consoles, Cisco must make his friends remember the past, and take the fight to Deadman's Grin once again. Of course, it turns out ghostbusting was a lot easier when you didn't have to contend with bad knees, school runs, and your kid's nativity play."--Back cover
