The Dead and Buried
By: Kim Harrington
Publisher: Scholastic Point
Release Date: January 1, 2013
A haunted house, a buried mystery, and a very angry ghost make this one unforgettable thriller.
Jade loves the house she's just moved into with her family. She doesn't even mind being the new girl at the high school: It's a fresh start, and there's that one guy with the dreamy blue eyes. . . . But then things begin happening. Strange, otherworldly things. Jade's little brother claims to see a glimmering girl in his room. Jade's jewelry gets moved around, as if by an invisible hand. Kids at school whisper behind her back like they know something she doesn't.
Soon, Jade must face an impossible fact: that her perfect house is haunted. Haunted by a ghost who's seeking not just vengeance, but the truth. The ghost of a girl who ruled Jade's school — until her untimely death last year. It's up to Jade to put the pieces together before her own life is at stake. As Jade investigates the mystery, she discovers that her new friends in town have more than a few deep, dark secrets. But is one of them a murderer?
This sounds pretty awesome! Can't wait to read it :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my WOW post.
I love ghost stories:) This one sounds like fun. Great choice! Thanks for visiting! (Books, Bones & Buffy)
ReplyDeleteI really liked the old cover for this one better. I thought it showed the haunted house/creepiness better than the final cover does.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, this was a pretty decent read, I enjoyed it. :)
I both love and hate ghost stories. And I only say hate because they scare me so much :-) This one looks really good. Thanks for sharing and thanks for stopping by our blog!
