An atmospheric and chilling ghost story debut from a talented young adult author. This room holds secrets, and even if they are of the dark–frightening type, I love secrets more than anything else. When Lily Frost's parents move her from the only home and best friend she's ever known to a country town called Gideon, things are dire. Lily knows no one – but someone seems to know her. And that someone isn't exactly the welcoming type. Upon entering her new attic bedroom, Lily faints. Coming to, she's overcome by the whispers of secrets. Determined to find out why, Lily is thrown into the path of cute local boy Danny. He's not giving anything away, so it's up to Lily to make sense of the watery footprints on her floor and the cold air that constantly seeps into her bones. For Lily, life in this small town is about to get very interesting as she finds herself seeing things she thought belonged to the dead.
