Reach for this book when your child is processing the loss of a loved one but is also seeking an adventurous, high stakes mystery to get lost in. It is an excellent choice for kids who feel like something is wrong in their world but can not quite put their finger on it, or for those who share a secret bond with a parent through shared hobbies and 'insider' theories. The story follows thirteen year old Quinn as she investigates her uncanny neighbors on Goodie Lane, neighbors who never age. While the 'spooky' elements are front and center, the heart of the book is Quinn's journey through grief following her father's death. It is a secular, fast paced horror mystery that balances genuine scares with the very real emotional weight of growing up. Best for ages 10 to 12, it provides a safe, metaphorical space to explore fear and the permanence of change.
