"When the beloved ghosts of Blight Harbor go missing, Evie Von Rathe must defeat the vicious Nighthouse Keeper to save her otherworldly friends and find her way back from the Dark Sun Side before she’s trapped there forever. Simultaneous eBook."

When Evie Von Rathe discovers that the ghosts in Blight Harbor are disappearing, she teams up with a young ghost named Lark and ventures into the Dark Sun Side, where she unravels a personal mystery and battles with shadow creatures to reach the Nighthouse and release the trapped souls.

Evie once again leaves her world behind to rescue Blight Harbor’s ghosts in this second book in the bone-chilling middle grade Blight Harbor trilogy that’s reminiscent of Doll Bones and Small Spaces.

Evie Von Rathe has been home for only a few weeks from her adventure in the strange world of seven houses when Blight Harbor’s beloved ghosts begin to disappear. Did they leave without saying goodbye, or has something gone horribly wrong? Soon Evie is invited to a mysterious council meeting, where she learns about the Dark Sun Side and a terrible secret.

Yes, the ghosts have gone missing. And that means serious trouble.

With the help of an eleven-year-old (or 111-year-old, but who’s counting) ghost named Lark, trusty Bird, and a plump ghost spider, Evie must find a way to defeat the vicious Nighthouse Keeper responsible for the missing ghosts, save her otherworldly friends, and find her way home from the Dark Sun Side before she’s trapped there forever.

Recenzijos

*"Nuanced character development is a strength across both first two books of the trilogy. Readers will undoubtedly eagerly await the final volume, even if it will mean saying goodbye to a fascinating and memorable world, and a brilliant protagonist in the heroic Evie, who is so much more than she initially dreams she can be." -- BCCB, Starred Review * October 2023 * Senfs nightmarish, well-imagined supernatural landscape is original and compelling. . . . More than just a battle between good and supernatural evil, this story shows the ultimate power of empathy and tenacity. Readers will be left both satisfied by the ending and wanting more. . . . Deliciously dark and gripping. -- Kirkus Reviews * 9/1/23 *
