A haunted mystery that explores the little-known history of Fascism in the US. After moving to a new home in an unfamiliar town, a girl discovers her house is haunted by the vengeful ghost of a young boy who drowned while trying to escape a Nazi indoctrination group.



It began with the sound of dripping water. A quiet but insistent tap that only Morgan seemed to hear.

When Morgan witnesses some eerie happenings in her family's new home, at first she shrugs them off. But as the unsettling dripping noises--and the sounds of someone crying outside her window--become more frequent, she starts to get nervous. Then a local kid named Anthony tells her the story of Joseph Klaus, a boy who drowned in the 1930s while trying to flee home from his summer camp. Home... to Morgan's new house.

Morgan can't help herself. She begins researching the Klaus boy, and in doing so uncovers the little-known history of the German American Bund, a Fascist organization known for indoctrinating children and forcing them into child labor. Klaus wasn't escaping from any old summer camp.

He was fleeing American Nazis.
