The Crossroads by Chris Grabenstein

4.0

Zack, his father and new stepmother have just moved to his father's hometown in Connecticut. Haunted by memories of his mother, he finds that this new town is a little bit stranger than NYC. Weird people keep popping up near his house and the old witch woman (a modern-day Miss Haversham) frightens him. His stepmother, Judy, notices the oddities as well and the two set out to find out the real story behind the tragic accident that occurred nearly fifty years ago.

What a great little book! The short chapters and constant suspense made it exciting and a quick read. Interesting and realistic characters (well, aside from the ghosts, that it) make this novel. I couldn't put it down.
