88,95 kr. Taylor has come to Swain's Fancy to spend the summer with her father and his new wife, Sylvia, and her children, Nicole and Peter. She has to share a room with Nicole, who thinks Taylor is about as welcome as Lyme disease. But the stepsisters' enmity is soon eclipsed by strange goings-on in the house. What makes the bedroom so cold? Who is that person looking out the attic window? Sibling rivalry is pushed aside as Taylor, Nicole, Peter, and neighbor Cody join forces to solve a murder committed during the Civil War. As Kirkus Reviews said of The Haunting at Stratton Falls, here is another "thoroughly satisfying ghost story with just the right amounts of scariness, suspense, and danger . . ."
