Synopsis
Laura Adson could never have guessed that her eccentric neighbor would turn out to be much, much more than just a mysterious old lady. For years she had heard the whispers and rumors about the strange and shadowy past of the rarely seen woman who lived next door. But if Laura's best friend, Cara, hadn't become positively obsessed with the idea that Mrs. Blackert must be a witch, then neither of them would have found themselves standing on a garbage can, during a thunderstorm, peering into her candlelit dining room. And they would never have known about the portraits--portraits whose eyes seemed to shift and slide. They lined the walls of the room, shimmering with an unearthly sense of evil. And Mrs. Blackert was having a conversation with one of them, a conversation that was not one-sided.... full of scenes that fire the imagination and crawl up the spine, Lisa Mullarkey's debut novel offers a suspenseful tale of friendship, witchery, and horribly impossible things... whose truth may be inescapable.
