Synopsis
Twelve-year-old Molly and her ten-year-old brother, Michael, have never liked their younger stepsister, Heather. Ever since their parents got married, she's made Molly and Michael's life miserable. Now their parents have moved them all to the country to live in a house that used to be a church, with a cemetery in the backyard. If that's not bad enough, Heather starts talking to a ghost named Helen and warning Molly and Michael that Helen is coming for them. Molly feels certain Heather is in some kind of danger, but every time she tries to help, Heather twists things around to get her into trouble. It seems as if things can't get any worse.
But they do—when Helen comes.

August 04, 2009: On a scale of 1 to 10 this book was an 11! It takes a few chapters to get into it but once you do it is a really exciting mystery. I like reading about ghosts and mysteries so I loved this book. The book also had a happy ending and I like that too.
Added by Mom: The book is not too scary - but there is a real ghost in it - and has some good points for discussion - about why people do things and about forgiveness.
