According to a mysterious lady that lives in the wood behind Graymoss, Lia will have to set free the evil that haunts Graymoss after dusk for the house to be "liveable." Will Lia save Graymoss. I would recommend this book to people who love a good spine-chilling, horrifying, spooky tale. After the death of Lia's great-grandmother, Sarah, an old plantation house named Graymoss is left in Lia's mother's hands. Nixon's style is mysterious murders, ghosts, and other things that go bump in the night.
What if ghost do exist. It's clear that Lia's goal us to get rid of the the ghost that haunt Graymoss. The plot revolves around the stories of Graymoss and the mystifying things that happen after dark. In summary, Joan Lowery Nixon knows how to write a good book from expostion to the closing sentence. Joan Lowery Nixon is a striking writer. I would read this book over and over again. What if they're watching you right now. Lia is shy and very unsure of herself.
Lia loves to read and doesn't solcialize well with others. Will the evil be vanquished. If I had to rate this book from 1 to 10, without a doubt I would this book a 10. The plot is very easy to follow. What if they're standing right behind you. Who is the inscrutable evil that haunts Graymoss.
She shows an evil mood, when she describes the mysterious evil that haunts the old plantation house. Lia's parents plan to move there and raise unadoptable children. All the women in her family have been exceptionally brave except for her. The exposition could use a little work but otherwise the book is breath-taking.This book gave me the jitters, but a chill that fills my mind with questions. The main character in the story is Lia Langley who looks back on her families' past and feels she doesn't fit in.
She looks in Favorite Tales of Edgar Allen Poe, for clues. She says there is no such thing as ghosts. Thats when things start happening. She goes to the house with Joshua(a boy she meets)and he leaves because he is scared of the ghosts.
Her mother decides she is going to move in and adopt unadoptable children. She goes to the house. Lia's great grandmother tells Lia to keep Graymoss protected. But Graymoss is protected. Lia reads her great great great grandmother's diary. It keeps spirits from hurting her.
She doesn't find any. At first she wanted her mom to believe in ghosts. But when she went to the orphanage she changed her mind completely. Thats when she decides to save Graymoss. It tells about the house. She couldn't bear to see those kids like that. She cant go near it.
She didn't want to share her parents with a bunch of noisy kids. So Lia and her friend Jolie go to a voodoo shop and gets gris-gris. So Lia has to go to the house and convince her mom that it is haunted, but her mom doesn't believe her. She tells her best friend and Lia decides to get rid of the spirits.

The group suggests that you read Sherlock Holmes and Nancy Drew stories as a mystery alternative. The cover art wasn't very compelling either. This book was not up to the reading standards of the Book Bandits teen bookclub in Meridian, Idaho. There was no empathy between readers and the characters, the plot was totally predictable, the characters were not developed fully, and the entire story did not capture the attention of the readers.
A young Katherin has to move into a deceased aunts house. Do you love suspense. I strongly recommend anybody who loves suspense and mystery to read this book. The haunting history about the house has Katherin on a perilous journey to find the truth and help her family from harm. The type of suspense that leaves you bitting your nails. Then you'll love Joan Lowery Nixon's "The Haunting".This might be the best book I have read this past summer.
