A young girl sets out to defeat the evil spirits inhabiting her home in this âthrillingâ¦Coraline-likeâ (Publishers Weekly, starred review) illustrated middle grade adventure perfect for fans of The Beast and the Bethany and Margaret Peterson Haddixâs The Strangers.
Lily is used to hospitalsâsheâs spent more time in them than out of them thanks to her recent health issues. But when her mother goes into labor, her parents drop her off at her grandmotherâs house and rush to the hospital without her. Lily doesnât want the new baby to replace her, and she certainly doesnât want to be sick anymore.
Most frustrating of all, she forgot to pack Willo, her favorite toy. Under her grandmaâs not-so-watchful supervision, Lily sneaks back home to get Willo. Expecting to find an empty house, she is surprised to find her parents there. But something isnât right... They look just like her mom and dad until she gets closer and sees their coal black eyes. And they refuse to let her inâitâs their house now.
With the help of some surprising new friends that she meets in her garden, Lily is determined to beat these shadowy replacements and be reunited with her real parents. But is she strong enough to triumph?
