Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. A heart-stopping supernatural adventure from one of fantasy fiction's most original talents--back in print Ghosts can be caught, and bottled, and sold by covert dealers to addicts who inhale the things--and when a young boy named Kootie accidentally inhales the ghost of Thomas Edison, he finds that all the factions of Los Angeles' occult underground are after him, determined to kill him and get Edison's powerful ghost for themselves.
