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.

Critic reviews

“Hahn weaves into the story some classic mystery elements such as a torn photograph, a waterlogged doll, dense fog, and an empty grave, all of which add to the suspense and keep the well-plotted story moving along to a satisfying conclusion.” ( School Library Journal)
“Hahn offers another eerie, suspenseful ghost story filled with family secrets…the emotional weight of family dynamics and the private burdens of adults might have overwhelmed the ghost story, but Hahn maintains the momentum with scenes that will chill readers as surely as a plunge in cold water.” ( Booklist)
“Signature spooky Hahn sends appropriate shivers up the reader’s spine.” ( Kirkus Reviews)

I had read this book before and loved it! And I still do! The story is great and complex, The only thing that was not so great was the Narrators voice kinda boring to listen to :/. But other then that it was Awesome. Great for kids 9-14!

I Loved this book!!

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!

Good book!

Have you listened to any of Rachel Dulude’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is the first of Rachel Dulude's performances I've listened to.
I had to admit it, but I typically dislike listening to female narrators. Rachel Dulude did a very good job with this book and it was a pleasant experience.

An Engaging Read
