Paraffin, Vermont is a
picture perfect town known for the delicious scents emanating from the famous
Grosholtz Candle Factory. But something sinister is lurking underneath
the perfect exterior. Poppy Palladino begins to suspect that the people
she has known her whole life are not what they seem. And the town legend
of the Hollow One's may be more real than she ever thought possible.
This is a spectacular
re-telling of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. With the sleepy Vermont
town setting, a splash of humor, and the unforgettable urban legend of the
Hollow One's, the author has created a winning combination.
