The Wilding House Mystery (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

An old, possibly haunted house on a hill, two teenagers alone, and a stormy night with a creepy hunched over intruder knocking at the door sets the scene for intrigue and trepidation. After leaving their mother, friends, and Boston for the summer, Rachel and Scott are somewhat reluctant to help run a country inn with their dad and stepmother in quite, quaint, Maine. As the plot moves along the two teenagers are confronted with strange happenings at the inn. Antiques are suddenly missing, the family boat is untied, strange guests are checking in, and the entire atmosphere begins to feel spooky. Could it be because back in the 1860's, Civil War days, the house was part of an Underground Railroad system for run-away slaves? Was someone murdered? Or could it all be a hoax? But why does the mystery keep growing as new characters register for a stay at the house on the hill? Pieces to the puzzle begin to fit as Rachel's sleuthing pays off and her feelings toward her stepmother and Maine drastically change.
