You won’t get scolded. You won’t get a beating. Death seems like a reasonable choice in Greaver Hall. A lot of it has been going on there. Fourteen-year-old Abi suffers a day-to-day basis of work and boredom. The housekeeper, Mrs. Lillian Cotton, is strict and uptight, so why not have a little fun? Maybe trick her into thinking her dead sister’s ghost is haunting her. But when the prank goes too far, a different spirit visits the house – one with no good intention.
This book was amazing, great, spectacular! I loved it so much, and the ending, oh the ending! It was shocking, a major twist. Like a giant crescendo in a great musical piece, it ended with a big bang. I highly recommend this book. The writing style and words make it seem like the reader is in the late 1800s. I loved it, so should you!

Abigale Tamper always believed in ghosts because of her mother. They said her mother died from cholera, but Abi believed that her mother was possibly murdered. One evening, a pale hand grabs her on her porch. When she wakes up, she believes it was all a dream. Or was it? There are a lot of surprises for Abi. Her best friend is pregnant and her cousin, Samuel, is returning home. What a bone-chilling thriller, especially at the end. Great if you love horror and mystery!
