The futuristic Caribbean island of Jacaranda is a place under the constant pressures of crime, globalisation, advancing technology and environmental decay. Under these ominous skies Curdella Forbes builds a compelling tale of love, murder and psychological mayhem – a forbidden, tragic love affair, and a family torn apart by injustice.
Published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Jamaica's independence, and written in a heady, lyrical mix of English and Jamaican Creole, Ghosts gleams with Caribbean spirituality, reflects on the timeless capacity of the human heart, and marks an important contribution to West Indian literature as a whole.

In Sweden, nobody wants a troll to come into their garden, but how do you stop them? On a lonely road at night in Oman, Abdul's car breaks down and he takes a ride with a stranger, but perhaps it is safer to walk. In England some young people play a scary game, and in Asia, a soldier returns home – at last. Every country in the world has stories about ghosts and spirits and monsters of one kind or another. Some people believe in ghosts, and some don't – but everyone enjoys a good ghost story.
