Review Quotes:
"Another well-done, action-packed mystery from Hahn. . . . Just the right amount of frightening and dangerous elements to entice readers." - School Library Journal
"As always, [Hahn] is brilliant at establishing tone--eerie, creepy and surreal. The 'cold case' mystery, the over-the-top fun of the Magic Forest scenes and the even darker mysteries of friendship and school life will make this a sure hit."
