When an attractive young banshee moves into his closet, predicting an upcoming death, anxiety-prone Conor is convinced that she's come for his beloved grandfather. To save Grump, Conor travels to the underworld, where he must face his greatest fears. Complex characters, a moving story line centered on family and courage, and plenty of exciting moments make this an appealing read.
