There are disturbing developments going on at Chez Newton - the messy home that Whiffy Newton shares with his father.
His dad's started dating again (er, yuk), and Whiffy's not sure if he trusts his dad's new girlfriend, Vonda, who's just a bit too interested in Dr Newton's work for Whiffy's liking.
And there's a mysterious force at work in Dr Newton's laboratory. Whiffy's almost convinced that it's the ghost of his late mother, trying to tell him something - or is it?
Can Whiffy get to the bottom of the spooky goings-on before his father's laboratory and the whole Newton way of life are utterly destroyed?
