Description
Piper and Quinn are twins, but they've never met. A tragic event brings them together, and draws them into a family curse that stretches across centuries.
Quick Summary
Piper and Quinn have lived their whole lives as strangers, but when a tragic accident forces them together they quickly discover a family curse that's been lurking for centuries, and it's not about to let them off the hook. The story balances genuine chills with sharp, witty dialogue that keeps the tension from ever feeling too heavy for teen readers who like a little humor mixed in with their scares. Anyone who loves piecing together cryptic clues, secret societies, and hidden family histories will find themselves hooked as the twins race to unravel the mystery before it catches up with them. Parents can rest assured the scares are more creepy than gory, and at its heart the book is a touching look at two siblings learning to trust each other after years apart. Think of it as a blend of the puzzle-solving fun of "The Mysterious Benedict Society" and the spooky family secrets of "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children."
