In a posh Chicago hotel, 1928:
Sixteen-year-old Percival Dooley is an elevator attendant with a mission -- catch a ghost, a beautiful ghost. He has survived his grim share - poverty, grief, and more than a few falls from great heights. Luck always caught him before the ground did. But luck, Percival knows, eventually runs out.
At the glamorous Blaughvoyon Hotel, he steps into a world far removed from his rough Irish neighborhood-and into dangers far stranger than he ever imagined. Beneath the hotel's polished floors and glittering guests lurks secrets.
As illusions unravel and truths twist into lies, the hotel gives clues of Percival's missing father. He fears the truth far more than abandonment. With his mother's sorrow haunting him and the Blaughvoyon's secrets closing in, Percival must decide what to believe, who to trust, and whether surviving another fall will cost him everything.
Whimsical, mysterious, and full of surprises, this historical fantasy is for teens and up who love ghosts, hidden truths, and brave hearts on the edge of belief.
