Summary
Just before summer begins, 13-year-old Ali finds an old photograph. She recognizes the two children in it; one’s her mother, the other her aunt Dulcie - but who is the third person, the one who’s been torn out of the picture? Ali will have two months to figure it out, since she’s spending the summer with her aunt and her cousin in the same house her mom and aunt used to visit when they were kids.
Then Ali meets Sissy. Sissy is mean, spiteful, and determined to ruin Ali’s summer. Sissy also has a secret. Could it have something to do with the old photo? Ali is dying to find out - though, if she’s not careful, that may be exactly what happens to her.

Solid enough for a freebie
Decent enough for a freebie. Easy listen although almost like a children’s book at times.

Predictable, but fantastic all the same.
Not as spooky as I had hoped. The plot was pretty predictable from the start. Still, a good read. I enjoyed it.

This is the first of Rachel Dulude's performances I've listened to.
I had to admit it, but I typically dislike listening to female narrators. Rachel Dulude did a very good job with this book and it was a pleasant experience.

I loved this
I love this book and this is what brought me back to reading i was in 7th grade when I first read this and now I’m in 9th I never thought reading was fun at first but then I my friend gave me this book and I thought I was ok at first but then when I got into it I was so amazed and thirsting for more. I read this book everyday and class and even got in trouble for it but I didn’t care as long as I had this book in hand. This book was amazing and now I love to read I want to think the author I’m guessing u probably think I’m ether 16-19 but actually I’m 14. So thank you for inspiring me to read.

Such a good book!!
I would recommend this book to ANYONE, not just children. Mary Downing Hahn has always been a favorite of mine ever since I was a child.

It's a good book
Even though it's very predictable, it's a very good story not really scary though.

simple story, executed well
while this plot isn’t inventive or ground breaking, as a twelve year old, i was haunted by this book in all the best ways. it’s a simple idea executed well- fog on a lake and the mystery of an old photograph. i just love it.
the narration of this book is just okay. at times, her delivery directly disagrees with the text (ex: “my mom answered, her voice shrill”). the narrator has a very strange inflection at times, and her voice for the young character emma is very annoying.
overall, this definitely deserves a read (maybe not a listen, though).

An unexpected kind of ghost story
The story is creative. I didn't buy the reader's version of what a five year old child sounds like, or a ghost child for that matter, but I let it go because the story kept me interested.

A classic
I remember when I was in 3rd grade I won a free book from the book fair, I've never been a fan of scary things but this book caught my eye. I read and read and read that book until I lost it in a move. I have since bought a paperback copy and now the audio book as well because it is such a good book it will always be a favorite.
