(3) 4-6 Eleven-year-old Stella and her three ghastly aunts reside in a hotel in Withering-by-Sea. Stella witnesses a murder, makes friends, and confronts questions about her identity as she tries to elude a malevolent magician and his bumbling henchmen. Atmospheric, suspenseful, and jammed with colorful characters, this gothic novel will leave readers impatient for a sequel. Half-tone illustrations enhance the story.
