Erin Curran is a rookie government Member of the Legislative Assembly when a startling encounter with the ghost of Joe Howe, Nova Scotia's most famous politician and journalist, changes the trajectory of her career and her life.
Howe has been silently walking the halls of historic Province House for more than 150 years and Erin is the first living soul he has spoken to in all that time.
At first, it is Erin who learns from Howe, the master politician and communicator, who brought responsible government to Nova Scotia, defended free speech and bitterly opposed Confederation.
But as their friendship grows, Howe gains an appreciation of our times as Erin faces the trials of today's politics and the unique challenges facing female MLAs-from sexist colleagues to misogynist social media trolls.
Joe Howe's Ghost is a reflection on Howe's tumultuous political era and of provincial politics today, and an exploration of the personal struggle between the desire for political power and upholding heartfelt personal convictions that are common to both.
