About this listen

Ghost, Cormac and Kate are not like other kids…. Ghost can turn invisible, Cormac can run up walls and Kate can talk to animals - all abilities which make them perfect recruits for the Black Lotus, a training school for ninjas.

But when the Moon Sword, a source of unimaginable power, is stolen by a samurai, the three are forced to put their new skills to the test in 16th-century Japan.
