The book is so extravagant, and I think that Jamie is a very adventurous boy, seeking out trouble! Exuberant as the book is, it is unfathomably exciting, filled with plot-twists and suspense! What a wonderful book to read, as well as a book filled with passion and depth! 5 stars! Liam S. The protagonist Jamie moves to Black Creek expecting to just find a quiet, boring town, but that's not in the cards for Jamie C. O'Hare. Instead, he stumbles upon an age-old mystery, ghosts, and possibly, some friends. This fast-paced mystery is guaranteed to get your heart racing. It deserves 5 stars. Kiana H.
