The Ghosts of Kerfol

165 pp. | Candlewick | August, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-3000-3 $16.99
(2) YA This collection of five linked ghost stories begins with Edith Wharton's "Kerfol" retold from the servant's perspective. Subsequent main characters include an artist in 1802, a 1926 party girl with a dark secret, an American couple in 1982, and, in 2006, a deaf gardener. Noyes grounds each entry in its time while maintaining the gothic atmosphere throughout.
