Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"The book will draw some readers through its subject matter and will thereby connect them with a character seeking to understand her family, her place in a larger scheme of things, and her glimpse beyond the natural world."

"Equal parts psychological realism and supernatural thriller, this story about living in the present and conquering fear has teen appeal in spades...Sinykin's simple, straightforward prose can be read by those as young as nine, but the subject matter--disease, death, arranged marriage and suicide--makes this title more appropriate for older readers. A good choice for reluctant teens."

Reseña del editor:

Davia is afraid of many things: death, ghosts, unfamiliar places, and the possible return of her mom's cancer. But she can't avoid her fears now. Far from their Wisconsin home, Davia and her parents are temporarily living in Louisiana to assist with the in-home hospice care of her great-aunt. When Davia encounters Emilie, the tortured ghost of a well-to-do adolescent girl from the nineteenth century, she is even more frightened.
