(2) 4-6 Twins Anna and Hannah Zimmer move into a creepy, long-uninhabited house. Their normal closeness is disrupted by the book's narrator, who, it gradually becomes clear, is tethered to the house by an old tragedy. Kelley carries out the supernatural elements well, and the narrative is almost simultaneously mordant and funny. A page-turning plot and astute characterization lift this mystery above the ordinary.
