Description:
When sixteen-year-old Wren Ashby moves to the mill town of Hallowford, she discovers Crimson Hill-a place haunted by ghosts bound to broken promises. With the help of two local teens, Wren uncovers a century-old cover-up tied to a deadly quarry explosion and a chilling rule: every ghost needs a witness or a final word. As a developer threatens to erase the truth forever, Wren must decide whether to stay silent-or let the hill finally speak. A gripping young adult ghost story about memory, courage, and justice.
