Jaakaylee is the narrator and protagonist of "The Ghost of Firozsha Baag," Jaakaylee (Jacqueline as mispronounced by the Parsis) is a 63-year-old, slightly overweight ayah originally from Goa, who has worked 49 years for the Karani family in B Block of Firozsha Baag. She is an observant Catholic who has always believed in ghosts and becomes a laughing stock when she reports seeing one in Bombay.
