Publisher Description
A psychic teen senses something terrible in her new high school
If you move around enough, every new school starts to look the same. But it doesn’t take an hour for Marlee Fleming to realize that Edison, Missouri, has a sinister secret. There’s something strange about Marlee, a power she doesn’t quite understand. Certain objects make her hear and see things no one else can. This power makes her feel sick, and she wishes she knew how to make it stop. But when she opens her new locker on her first day in Edison, she hears screaming so loud she nearly passes out. Marlee’s new friends—talkative Noreen, handsome Tyler, and bad-boy Jimmy Frank—say the locker belonged to Suellen Downing, a student who vanished the year before. Marlee doesn’t want to get involved with small town mysteries; she just wants to keep her head down and do her work. But Suellen calls to her every time she opens her locker, and she cannot ignore the cries of the dead. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Richie Tankersley Cusick including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the author’s personal collection.

A spooky ghost story...
I read this as a paperback and I thought it was awesome! Romantic, suspenseful, spooky, and well-told! Great characterization! Marlee is a likable, interesting protagonist with psychic powers that are convincingly described. As her love interest, cute, friendly, funny Tyler is also impossible not to like. And Marlee’s psychic abilities help to make this a spooky, suspenseful ghost story, one that comes with quite a chilling mystery to solve! This book easily reminds me of why I love 90s teen horror novels, even though I’m an adult who is in my mid-40s! Adults who love reading teen horror books from the 70s, 80s, and 90s (YA horror books) will love this! Teens who enjoy reading Cusick’s chillers will also love it!
