Safira doesn't believe in ghosts, but the girl in her cabin at camp was not a living person, so what was she?

Safira's friend Trinity is convinced Safira's seen a ghost and sets out to discover who the ghost girl is. Safira is too busy dealing with her family to help solve the mystery. Safira has never gotten along with her sister, Mya, and now that Mya's pending marriage dominates the family there seems to be no hope for friendship between them. But when Trinity discovers the death of a girl named Myra, Safira starts to wonder if the ghost-girl has an important message about her own sister.

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for middle-grade readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don't like to read!

      After seeing a ghost, Safira and her friend Trinity try to discover its identity. Research and a Ouija board point to someone who died long ago. However, Safira suspects the specter may be her living sister's shade (or spirit) warning her of a mistake she is about to make. Short, suspenseful chapters may help readers overlook the plot's gaps.
