Ghost-seer Zack Jennings (The Crossroads, The Hanging Hill) gets to start over at Horace P. Pettimore Middle School, but he doesn't get to leave spirits behind. The school's long-dead namesake has plans to possess a student and settle an old score. This multifaceted mystery has enough likable--and pleasurably unlikable--characters to keep readers following its many threads.
