BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: SEVERAL
12yo Lila’s life has been uprooted. The grandpa she never met has died and her family has relocated to Grandpa Clem’s Castle Inn to get it ready to sell. But something happens on the way there and now Lila can see ghosts? Teddy, the next door neighbor, and Caleb, Lila’s little brother, are there to help her figure out what’s going on - especially after Clem contacts her and tells Lila that he was murdered!
Great cover that should draw some kids in. The drama gets quite tense when the kids get close to the final answers they need - with the whole final being very satisfying. While I was annoyed by Lila’s tentativeness early on, she grew nicely.
