As Bess embarks on a remarkable journey with Sir Walter's ghost, she uncovers a surprising truth: she is his ancestor! But how will she explain this extraordinary revelation to her family? Especially when Sir Walter causes mischief, such as breaking her brother's fishing rod, stealing a horse, and even smoking cigars in her room?
