This is the kind of mystery I would have wanted to read when I was young. It has ghosts, five of them to be exact, and plenty of danger. Nothing is watered down for kids, which is good because kids know just how dangerous the world really is.

Some things that made this book stand out for me were: October's father's clinical depression, and October's accurate knowledge of it; the honest treatment of racism even in our schools, and how racist micro-aggressions can be just as damaging as full-on, virulent racism.

I liked how the 1914 mystery connected to the modern-day mystery and how October and her friends worked toward solving both of them.
