After I read this author's
Sweep, I had to read this. What an amazing and original storyteller Jonathan Auxier is! If you like spooky and scary, this is the book for you. Two young children lose their parents fleeing the Irish Potato Famine and must find a home and work. In early 19th-century England, one way you could do that was to work for a family as servants. So they do. But the household that has taken them in has secrets - dark and terrifying secrets. The family knows it, too. What keeps them all there even though they are aware of the curse??? Buckle up for a creepy and exciting story about finding out what is really important in life. (FIC AUX)
