Deception (Haunting Emma #1)Bloomsbury Childrens BooksHardcover, 336 pages.Release date: June 8th 2010 (US) / July 5th 2010 (UK)Target Age Group: Young Adult.When Emma Vaile's parents go missing while away on a mysterious business trip, her brother's very cute best friend, Bennett Stern—Emma's knight in J. Crew armor—arrives unexpectedly to whisk her away to New England. There, Emma settles into his family's museum-like mansion and enrolls at an old-fashioned private school. Emma has memories of Thatcher that she can't explain—it's as if she's returning home to a place she's never been. Finally, Emma confides in Bennett and learns she is a ghostkeeper, a person who can communicate with ghosts. Bennett brought Emma to Thatcher to protect her, but now he needs her help tracking an other-worldly murderer.
This sounds like a fun new series, and I look forward to checking it out. I reckon a few of you US bloggers have gotten review copies already since the US release date is only days away, so if you've read it, let me know your thoughts. Let me know what you think of the cover art too! Share your WoW picks in comments.
