The first day of school is not always easy. There are so many new experiences that you will encounter. This is true for Khepri in Ancient Egypt as well. Khepri is the son of a fisherman who is about to leave home to go to school in the city. He is going to learn to be a scribe. In Ancient Egypt, not everyone could read or write. Young boys were trained as scribes to fill the need. As Khepri and his father travel down the Nile River towards the city, the young boy thinks about what he is leaving behind.

Rosa would rather be anywhere but here. They have lived in some great libraries in their time but now they are stuck in the basement of the Ingot library. She doesn't even know why her mother would even take this job. Her mother is the best ghost appeaser in the country. You see, all libraries are haunted and must hire ghost appeasement librarians to keep things safe. All libraries have apartments where the family lives while the librarian works. But why has her mom taken a job in the only unhaunted town in the world. Or are things not as they seem? What happens when a town tries to banish ghosts rather than appease them?
