A haunting and page-turning classic from an award-winning author.

It’s as if the wooden chest is luring me, urging me to open it – daring me almost. Open me up. Look inside. Come on, just for a second; it won’t hurt.

Celina O’Malley was sixteen years old when she disappeared. Now, almost forty years later, Bayley is living in Celina’s old house, sleeping in the same room, wearing her clothes and, most strangely, hearing her voice. What does Celina want with Bayley?

But Bailey has her own problems, she’s dealing with her father’s death, the move to a new town and her family falling to pieces around her. Bayley needs to solve the mystery of Celina before it’s all too late.

A ghost story. A love story. A story of revenge.
