(4) 4-6 Summer's world falls apart after her brother dies. Hoping for a new start, her dad moves Summer and her sister to Australia, leaving her feeling even sadder since her mother has stayed behind in England. Playing her dead brother's guitar brings Summer comfort--and it seems to make a mysterious boy appear. Despite well-developed characters and vivid prose, the mystery's supernatural element doesn't quite work.
