(4) 4-6 Hannah Silver's family are Guardians, tasked with protecting a hidden door in their lighthouse that connects our world to the city of the dead. When a banished soul kills her mother, Hannah travels through the door to rescue her. The intriguing premise and fluid prose are compelling but undermined by some unexplained dynamics of the city and an anticlimactic ending.
