"A young girl is forced to move into a broken-down house in the country—and she and her new stepbrother discover its hidden horrors . . ."

Martha, her father, stepmother and stepbrother move into a rundown house in the country which looks and feels like a haunted house, and when she finds out that the house was on the market because a murder had taken place there, she is understandably upset. So you can imagine how she feels when she learns that the murder victim was a girl her own age, who even looks like her. When she starts school at the local high school, along with Conor, her stepbrother, she makes friends pretty quickly, but they figure into the murder mystery, too.

This was a very well written book. In fact, the setting was described so well, you might find yourself looking over your shoulder while reading it! The story itself led you along at a good pace, and you're given just enough clues to start making your own guesses as to who the culprit is.

This was a quick read because it's not a super long book, and it was well written. I liked the characters and liked the story, and am therefore giving it 5/5 stars.

I received a copy of this book free of charge in exchange for my honest opinion.
