Review

Harper Raine and her family move to a new house in Washington, D.C. that is said to be haunted. Her four year old brother, Michael, starts speaking to an imaginary friend and acting strangely. Harper makes a new friend in the neighborhood who helps her learn more about the house's history. Harper discovers that she can communicate with ghosts. This ability runs in the family. Family dynamics play an important role in this novel with Korean-Americans as the main characters. The story is well written and full of suspense. It is not for the faint of heart. Readers who enjoy a scary story with a sinister presence will find this satisfying.

Overall Book Score: very good
