Minerva Clark Gives Up the Ghost

217 pp. | Bloomsbury | September, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-1-58234-679-3 $16.95
(3) 4-6 Nothing is as it seems when thirteen-year-old Minerva agrees to help Angus Paine find out who set fire to his family's haunted grocery store. One minute Angus is friendly and helpful; the next he's distant and deceitful. Complicating matters, Minerva's estranged mother wants Minerva to welcome her new stepfather. Karbo's protagonist is a distinctive character with an authentic young-adolescent perspective.
