What is Ghost knight about?

When 11-year-old Jon Whitcroft is sent to boarding school in Salisbury, he expects loneliness and trouble—not a terrifying gang of ghosts. With the help of Ella, a bold and curious new friend, Jon discovers that the spirits are connected to a centuries-old murder. To survive their haunting and protect the school, the two friends must uncover the truth and summon the help of a long-dead knight. Their investigation leads them into a dangerous mystery where the past refuses to stay buried.
