Summary: When Catherine goes to stay with her Grandma, everyone who loves her hopes that the visit will help her get over her role in the death of her best friend Kirsty. At her Grandma's church, she hears someone calling her name, when it's clear no one is there. She gets strange phones calls from someone named Noah, who claims to be able to help her communicate with her dead friend. But Noah himself has been dead for over 100 years, and he has a nasty little habit of "collecting" pretty girls who look eerily like Catherine in his search for a soul mate.
My thoughts: I snuck this little book in in-between reading some others and had to finish it! Eve Bunting is such a great talent--she usually writes picture books, and can somehow still write a book creepy enough to make a grown-up shiver! Bunting doesn't reveal Catherine's roll in Kirsty's death until almost the end of the book, and when you find out what it was, it will break your heart.
