Synopsis:
When their mother is hospitalized, Tara and Kyle are sent to stay with their only remaining relatives, their grandparents.
The elderly couple seems friendly at first, and the house, hidden in the base of the mountains, is full of nooks to explore.
But strange things keep happening and Tara and Kyle must find a way to protect themselves from their increasingly erratic grandparents... and from the ghosts that inhabit the Folcrafts' house.
My Thoughts:
When Tara and Kyle's mother is in an accident that lands her in a coma, they are scooped up by a grandmother and grandfather they've never met and whisked off to a small-town farm. Their grandparents seem kind at first, and then a little overprotective, which turns to isolation. When Tara and Kyle start to see ghosts they really start to ask questions but their grandparents have too many secrets and the price for knowing them is higher than they can imagine.
This is the third book I've read by Darcy Coates and I'm quickly turning into a fan. I adore ghost stories but had her books recommended to me many times before I finally picked one up.
I enjoyed this one a lot. It was a quick read but had a very interesting plot with some history and back story thrown in that rounded out the story very well.
Darcy Coates is published as adult fiction but this one, in particular, would be perfect for young adult readers who enjoy ghost stories or dysfunctional families.
