"My friend Hercule Poirat and I were called to investigate mysterious events at the famouse Grand Hotel in New Mouse City. There was a ghost haunting the hotel and scaring guests! It was wearing clanking armor and carrying a ball and chain. I know that ghosts don't exist, but this was pretty spooky. Would Poirat and I be able to solve the mystery of the haunted hotel?"--P. [4] of cover.
