This book is 71 years old. let me read the back of the book would Amanda would like David I couldn't help but Wonder it wasn't every day you got a new sister especially one a year older than you were Amanda was Molly's daughter and Molly was David's new stepmother David liked Molly so did three younger children but Amanda could well be something else again Amanda was indeed something else again a student of the occult she arrived and her ceremonial costume complete with her familiar a crow named rule it was not like it was not long before Amanda had recruited David and the others to be or not novices she led them through a series of tests and initiations none of which turned out quite as anyone expected no one no real harm was done however until Amanda discovered that I said it was headless Cupid on The stairway was evidence of the fact that the house had once entered a poltergeist there goes that do mischief ghost not now no real harm was done however until Amara Amanda discovered that a headless Cupid on The stairway was evidence of the fact that a house had once entertained a poltergeist. then the question became was the new poltergeist a real thing or was it just Amanda David thought he knew but that like everything else turned out differently from the way it might have sounds good I've saved it I haven't read it yet I'm going to read it I hope anyway if it was probably a library book it's been discarded so usually library books are first editions I didn't see that but I love this writer she wrote another book called the Egyptian game I have that in hardcover too anyway this is a hardcover book and I'm sure that you'll love it and you can pass books down and you know what books grow in value just as much as coins do.
