Book 1
Mystery Hides in Room 108
Something in Room 108 is eating the guests' treasures. And something on the back stair is waiting for a wooden door to give.
It's Lantern Week at the Grand Lantern Hotel, where every corner is lit, because nothing can appear in a lit room. Then a music disc vanishes from a guest's chest. A spyglass follows. Then a compass and a cookie disappear from a room whose door never opened. Everyone blames the silent Wandering Trader, who only hums and turns invisible every night. Monty says he saw him do it. But ten-year-old bellhop Nettie Ferreira notices things, and the times on the front-desk Guest List don't add up.

Book 2
Mystery Hides in Room 412
Something with red eyes is sitting on the hotel roof. And only one boy knows who keeps leaving the door open.
It's the last week of the river ferries at the Grand Lantern Hotel, where every corner is lit, because nothing can appear in a lit room. Then a ghost-hunter in Room 410 is knocked flat on the tower stair by something he can't see. All he saw were eyes. Two, then four, then six, then eight, with nothing around them at all.
