MARY DOWNING HAHN is the award-winning author of many popular ghost stories and mysteries. A former librarian, an avid reader, traveler, and all-around arts lover, Ms. Hahn lives in Columbia, Maryland.

 

"Hahn's story is characteristically steeped in eerie atmosphere, and the novel's blend of historical drama, the supernatural, and the intricacies of adolescent friendship is a gripping combination." --PW

 

 

"Hahn is a veteran author who clearly knows her apples about writing ghost stories, as this, her latest inventive page-turner, evidences... Shivers aplenty, but also genuine emotion that will invite empathy." -- Booklist

 

 

"Another historical and chilling success." --Kirkus

 

 

"Another solid addition to Hahn's oeuvre, this would also make a spine-chilling pair with Cohen's The Doll's Eye." --Bulletin
