From New York Times bestselling author Lauren DeStefano comes a delightful tale of a girl who can talk to ghosts that’s perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman and Holly Black.

Pram Bellamy is special--she can talk to ghosts. She doesn't have too many friends amongst the living, but that's all right. She has her books, she has her aunts, and she has her best friend, the ghostly Felix.

Then Pram meets Clarence, a boy from school who has also lost a parent and is looking for answers. Together they arrive at the door of the mysterious Lady Savant, who promises to help. But this spiritualist knows the true nature of Pram's power, and what she has planned is more terrifying than any ghost.

New York Times bestselling author Lauren DeStefano is beloved by critics and readers alike, and her middle grade debut is lyrical, evocative and not to be missed.

So mysterious! Adventurous! Cliff hanging! AWESOME!!

This book gave me nightmares, but it was soooo worth it!!

I LOVE THIS BOOK. ITS MYSTERIOUS

This book is a tale of life's biggest trial; death. Pram Bellamy sees ghosts, can hear ghosts, and can talk to them. It started when she was very young, she would see the ghosts of insects. Then she met a ghost boy named Felix. Felix was her friend almost her whole life. Her aunts just thought he was an imaginary friend. She lived with her aunts because her mother died during labor. Pram never met her father or her mother. Pram died the day of her birth, but the doctors brought her back to life. Being in between life and death gave her the ability to see ghosts. One day, after being homeschooled all her life, she must go to school. At school, she meets Clarence Blue, and quickly befriends him. His mother died when he was young too. He is trying to find the ghost of his mother, which leads them to the spiritualist, Lady Savant. After that, thing start becoming strange. What will happen next? You'll have to read the book to find out.
