(4) YA Twelve years after her twin sister disappeared, Gretchen and brother Ansel arrive in Live Oak, South Carolina, where they befriend Samuel, an outcast, and Sophia, a candymaker. A witch and werewolves are targeting teen girls, and it's up to Gretchen to uncover the truth before she becomes the next victim. Gratuitous insertion of werewolves aside, this "Hansel and Gretel" reimagining is intriguing.
