Synopsis: [from the cover flaps: "Was "Eleanor" really a ghost? When Laurie, her family, and her best friend Jenny arrive at Cabin 13 in Backbone State Park for a week's vacation, the mysterious notes left in the cabin don't really alarm her. Laurie thinks it's just a prank to scare campers. After all, there were also eerie bobbing lights said to be seen floating out over the lake. Soon Laurie discovers that "Eleanor"--the signature on all the notes--was the name of a young girl who had stayed in Cabin 13 the previous summer and had died in an accidental drowning. The ghostly notes become more frequent and alarming, and Laurie finds she can't get Eleanor off her mind. Although Jenny is more interested in meeting boys, she reluctantly agrees to help Laurie track down the truth. Their investigations become terrifying when their canoe sinks--was it deliberately sabotaged?--and Laurie is tricked into meeting the "ghost" late one night at the park's cave. But Laurie persists, and as she does she learns more about the rich history of the Backbone Trail. She also becomes convinced that Eleanor's death was no accident. Will Laurie be the next victim of the haunted Cabin 13?" The cover illustration is described.
