Mary-Lynette is worried about her elderly next door
neighbor. Her three nieces have some to
visit, but she saw them dragging an oddly shaped bundle out of the house and
burying it in the back yard. The town
bullies are also acting kind of weird, and she is sure that the girls have
something to do with it. The biggest
weird turn however, is when Mary-Lynette meets the girls’ brother, Ash. He makes her feel very uneasy – in both
a good and a bad way. Its her own brother, Mark, that is the one who brings everything out
into the open.
The second book in this classic series brings in new
characters and adds dimension to an old antagonist. I enjoyed these books the first time around
and I’m very glad that Simon has republished them. It will be interesting to see if these new
covers circulate.
