We’re two weeks out from New York Times bestseller Tiffany D. Jackson’s sophomore middle-grade novel GHOST IN THE NIGHT (Scholastic Press; ages 9-12; 8/4/26)! Perfect for readers looking to celebrate summerween, set against the atmospheric backdrop of Savannah, Georgia, famously known as “America’s Most Haunted City”, the novel follows twelve-year-old Harmony, a ghost-obsessed girl spending the summer on tour with her musician father while grappling with the recent loss of her grandmother. Convinced that proof of ghosts would mean loved ones never truly leave us, Harmony makes ghost tours a mandatory stop in every city they visit.
But when a Savannah ghost tour leads Harmony and her new friends into a real-life missing persons investigation, her search for the supernatural takes a dangerous turn. As the suspicious death of a respected member of Savannah’s Black community and the disappearance of a young Black boy send shockwaves through the city, Harmony uncovers a web of secrets, lies, and buried truths that someone is determined to keep hidden.
Blending suspense, heart, and history, GHOST IN THE NIGHT explores grief, community, and Savannah’s rich Black heritage through a fast-paced mystery that will keep readers turning pages. Jackson’s signature storytelling places Harmony at the center of a chilling investigation where the real danger may not come from ghosts at all.
