I've got a lot of "ghost" books on my jail-broken Kindle and I don't know how to get rid of them without exiting Aeroplane mode.

My ancient Kindle Paperwhite has not come out of Aeroplane mode since the Bush administration, and I'm very happy to keep it that way. I do have the plugin loaded (can't remember its precise name) that should stop any updates, but why take chances?

I sideload all books to the Kindle via Calibre (all formats converted to MOBI).

My problem is that when I look at the ALL tab on the home page, it lists about 140 pages of ghost books that I can't delete without going online. I recognise all the titles, though they are not listed using the naming convention I've set up in Calibre.

Any idea about how I can delete them? is there a file holding this data that I can delete in File Explorer, for instance?
