About this listen
Just before summer begins, 13-year-old Ali finds an old photograph. She recognizes the two children in it; one’s her mother, the other her aunt Dulcie - but who is the third person, the one who’s been torn out of the picture? Ali will have two months to figure it out, since she’s spending the summer with her aunt and her cousin in the same house her mom and aunt used to visit when they were kids.
Then Ali meets Sissy. Sissy is mean, spiteful, and determined to ruin Ali’s summer. Sissy also has a secret. Could it have something to do with the old photo? Ali is dying to find out - though, if she’s not careful, that may be exactly what happens to her.

As she tries to unravel the events that led to her mom fleeing the island 16 years ago, Mara finds that the biggest secret of all is only the beginning.

Predictable but a good story
Although this was a very predictable story for me, it was a good one. Well written and likable characters. Well, maybe "Sissy" wasn't as likable. Goes to show that some things in life can come back to haunt you.

My favorite YA author
While the story is predictable for adults, realize that this is written for a younger audience. Younger readers are less likely to predict the ending though some will. Mary Downing Hahn paints eerie pictures with her word craft and as always does not disappoint.

I read this book several times when I was younger, it was really nostalgic to listen to it! I would say it’s more for younger people 10-15, but it’s still entertaining to listen to when I’m older!
