(3) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Sarah becomes unwilling stepsister to brothers Nacho, ten, and Marco, also twelve, when their parents wed. The blended family then goes yachting off Fiji, and things go horribly wrong. The book switches focus from the realistic, well-developed stepfamily drama to creepy paranormal elements about halfway through. Strong characters, creative world-building, and interesting genre-mixing create an entertaining, sinister adventure story.
