(2) YA Cora, sent with her little sister to crumbling Guerdon Hall, learns that the family has suffered a string of child deaths and abductions. Delving into Guerdon history, she and a local boy increasingly see ghosts of the children and of a tormented Elizabethan priest. This post–World War II horror fantasy, told in three voices, evokes the eastern England setting with earthy richness.
