There's a ghost across the road in Wainoni Park. The park is closed, but the signs remain. His name is Alexander Bickerton. I've never seen him, and neither has my brother Sandy - we haven't lived here long enough. The third in three historical stories set in Ōtautahi Christchurch, after The Ghosts on the Hill and The Roar of the Lion.
