Franklin helps ghosts pass along from this world to the next.

However, this new ghost disturbs him. A powerful ghost, stronger than any Franklin has encountered. A greedy ghost, licking up all Franklin's lard. A very different ghost.

And Franklin learned long ago that different just spells trouble.

"Franklin Versus The Popcorn Thief"—the first novel in The Chronicles of Franklin—immerses the reader deep in rural Kentucky, with an eclectic cast of characters and a delightful touch of magic.

Be sure to read the other books as well, "Franklin Versus The Soul Thief" and "Franklin Versus The Child Thief."
