Mystery | Young Adult Suspense | Fiction
It begins with a call one snowy February night. Lying in her
bed, young Sylvie Mason overhears her parents on the phone
across the hall. This is not the first late-night call they
have received, since her mother and father have an uncommon
occupation: helping "haunted souls" find peace. And yet
something in Sylvie senses that this call is different from
the others, especially when they are lured to the old church
on the outskirts of town. Once there, her parents disappear,
one after the other, behind the church's red door, leaving
Sylvie alone in the car. Not long after, she drifts off to
sleep, only to wake to the sound of gunfire. As the story
weaves back and forth through the years leading up to that
night and the months following, the ever-inquisitive Sylvie
searches for answers and uncovers secrets that have haunted
her family for years. Capturing the vivid eeriness of
Stephen King's works and the quirky tenderness of John
Irving's novels, Help for the Haunted is told in the
captivating voice of a young heroine who is determined to
discover the truth about what happened on that winter night.
