"The Blue Ghost Mystery: A Rick Brant Science-Adventure Story" by Harold L. Goodwin is a science-adventure novel written in the early 1960s. The story follows a young boy named Rick Brant, along with his friend Scotty and sister Barbara, as they embark on an unexpected journey to investigate the mysterious appearances of a ghost rumored to haunt their surroundings in Virginia. The blend of science, youthful curiosity, and supernatural intrigue sets the stage for an exciting and captivating adventure. The opening of the book introduces readers to Rick Brant, a budding scientist with a passion for microscopy, who receives a spooky invitation from his sister Barby urging him to come witness a ghost sighting. As Rick and Scotty prepare to fly to Virginia, they learn about the legendary Blue Ghost, which is tied to a historical love story from the Civil War era. After they arrive, they are captivated by the tale of Captain Seth Costin, who met a tragic fate while trying to meet his love at an old mine. However, the boys maintain their skepticism about ghosts, particularly after witnessing the eerie mist that precedes a ghostly apparition. Rick is motivated to investigate further, using scientific methods and explorations into the mine and surrounding areas, all while trying to unravel the mystery behind the ghost and its relation to past events, ultimately propelling the story into an engaging blend of adventure and discovery.
