As the big 5-0 approaches, Mark Fitzgerald decides to track down five ghosts from his past. They include his best man, a student government ally, a rival from graduate school, a boss who hated him, and his senior prom date. His wife Kelly gives her approval, but she warns the newspaperman that this mission may disappoint him. His best friend has been AWOL since Fitzgerald's wedding. He has missed their friendship. While in college, Fitzgerald discovered that an ally backed the candidate who defeated him for presidential reelection. In grad school Fitzgerald clashed with a classmate, who the faculty considered the next Woodward/Bernstein. In his first job Fitzgerald felt that this editor ripped his copy to shreds without any discussion. Lastly, the birthday boy wants to know what happened to the girl who he took to the senior prom. What Mark Fitzgerald discovers will upset him, confound him, and surprise him. Some folks favor solitude; others savor their memories.

Book Description
"After serving in Vietnam as a U.S. Marine, photographer Craig Barber returns twenty-eight years later to a country that he first saw through the eyes of combat. Haunted by the deaths he witnessed, Barber carries his memories of being eighteen with a taunting bull's-eye painted on his helmet, the smell of smoldering bombs, and the cries of the dying back to Vietnam in order to put his ghosts to rest. In the Vietnamese countryside, he captures the healing landscapes with bomb craters turned into fish-rearing ponds and watering reservoirs, metal sections from former airstrip runways transformed into window grates, and shell casings functioning as fence posts. An essay by Alison Devine Nordstrom, Curator of Photographs at the George Eastman House, Rochester, offers insight into photography's role in unlayering the past."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
Ghosts aren’t meant to stick around forever... Shelly and her grandmother catch ghosts. In their hair. Just like all the women in their family, they can see souls who haven’t transitioned yet; it’s their job to help the ghosts along their journey. When Shelly’s mom dies suddenly, Shelly’s relationship to ghosts—and death—changes. Instead of helping spirits move on, Shelly starts hoarding them. But no matter how many ghost cats, dogs, or people she hides in her room, Shelly can’t ignore the one ghost that’s missing. Why hasn’t her mom’s ghost come home yet? Rooted in a Cree worldview and inspired by stories about the author’s great-grandmother’s life, The Ghost Collector delves into questions of grief and loss, and introduces an exciting new voice in tween fiction that will appeal to fans of Kate DiCamillo’s Louisiana’s Way Home and Patrick Ness’s A Monster Calls.
