Zara The Dancing Jumbie - Book 1

Some ghosts don’t haunt… they dance.

When 11-year-old Niya moves to St. Eustatius—Statia for short, she expects sunshine and Carnival fun—not ghost stories. But whispers of Zara, the Dancing Jumbie, pull her into the island’s most chilling mystery.

Zara was once the queen of Carnival, her feathered headdress lighting up the streets. But one stormy night, she vanished. Now, every year, when the drums play, a glowing figure appears, dancing through the night before fading away.

Some say it’s just a legend. Others believe Zara is searching for something… or someone.

Determined to uncover the truth, Niya and her cousin Aidan follow eerie clues—a forgotten ship manifest, an elder’s warning, and strange sightings in the Carnival Village. With the help of Mr. B.B., a mysterious island historian, they dig deeper…but the closer they get, the more dangerous it becomes.

Shadows move. Whispers call their names. And something—or someone—is watching.

Can they solve the mystery before Carnival ends? Or will they become part of the legend themselves?

A spine-tingling Caribbean ghost mystery for readers who love folklore, adventure, and things that go bump in the night!
