The Popcorn Thief

Franklin loves popcorn. He used to love his mama more. Then she died, but didn't pass on, and now haunts him like all the other ghosts. Only popcorn brings him solace. Every year, Franklin competes against Karl for the Kentucky State Fair blue ribbon prize for the best popping corn. When an angry ghost leaves an ear of corn--stolen from Karl's crop, with Franklin's fingerprints on it--at the scene of a murder, Franklin knows his troubles just started.
