(4) YA Lacey is eager to participate in her church's "Hell House" and to make her father--the children's pastor--proud. However, some unexpected developments (including a cute new boy) conspire to undermine Lacey's faith. Walker handles her characters' religious convictions with respect, depicting Hell House without condescension or judgment. However, Lacey's naiveté may make it difficult for readers to connect with her.
