Cousins Mike and Kate are in Toronto, Ontario, investigating strange "ghost lights" in the Blue Jays' dugout. Taking advantage of their stadium access (Kate's mom is a sports journalist), the sleuths attempt to solve the mystery. There's not much character development, but this tenth installment will appeal to young baseball fans who have enjoyed the previous books.
