X. '11
Margaret's dad died in a drowning accident four years back, and her
mom still won't talk about it. Lately, her mom hasn't really being
talking about anything at all. Then Margaret's mom takes her and her
sister Sophie to a strange abandoned mansion. Things are starting to
get weird. First, their mom puts up a for sale sign in front of the
mysterious house. Then, she finds a swimming medal, a key, and a
handwritten comic book- Ratt Volume 1. She is determined to
solve this strange mystery, so she returns to the abandoned mansion
alone. Along the way, she meets this boy named Boyd, who's obsessed
with comic books and particularly the Ratt Volumes. The strange thing
about these comic books is that some mysterious person or thing leaves
them in the library every night... Together, she and Boyd venture into
the abandoned mansion and they find out that someone's been in
there...
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read the
Gooesbumps series. That's because this book contains a lot of
suspense.
