INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Auxier, Jonathan

The Night Gardener

(2) 4-6 During the Irish Potato Famine, siblings Molly and Kip land in England at the once-proud Windsor family's stately but decrepit mansion, which appears to exert a malevolent force on its inhabitants. Auxier delivers a spooky, menacing atmosphere; mystery; and suspense. While the book partakes of familiar tropes and themes, there's enough of a fresh spin on them that readers should be captivated.
