The second mystery solved by Allie Nichols, "ghost magnet," from author Cynthia DeFelice, author of The Ghost of Fossil Glen

Just a few short weeks ago, sixth-grader Allie Nichols realized that she must be some kind of ghost magnet when she met the spirit of a murdered girl. Now, a new ghost has appeared to her, a handsome young man, and he's pointed her in the direction of her creepy cafeteria lady, Mrs. Hobbs. Allie has always suspected Mrs. Hobbs of something, and this just confirms it. So do the mysterious fires that keep breaking out every time Allie tries to investigate her. Surely Mrs. Hobbs isn't going to kill her. Or is she?

“Another dangerously thrilling supernatural adventure … A diverting and suspenseful ghost story offering a likeable protagonist and a thrilling romantic spark.”—The Horn Book

Any additional comments?

Well, it was simply adorable and so fun to read. It isn’t as sophisticated, perhaps, by today’s standard but it really hit the mark for me. A young girl is able to hear/see ghosts sometimes and finds herself enmeshed in a past mystery and murder. The kind of scary I used to love to read in the seventies and still like to get my hands on. Well written, cute, fun and spooky. Loved it!

Old-time amazing! Loved it.
