Our Review

A suspenseful story of friendship and supernatural abilities unfolds when a twelve-year-old girl named Tess moves to a new neighborhood and attempts to befriend the mysterious boy next door. Sam, a boy her age who is ostracized by the other kids, possesses a unique and powerful gift that he must struggle to control and keep completely secret, creating an immediate air of mystery and tension from the very first pages.

This novel skillfully blends the relatable anxieties of being the new kid with the thrilling elements of a hidden paranormal power, making it particularly engaging for middle-grade readers drawn to character-driven fantasy. The dynamic between the lonely, curious Tess and the isolated, burdened Sam provides a compelling emotional core that explores themes of acceptance and the courage it takes to be different. Young readers will be quickly pulled into the secret and eagerly anticipate how Tess's arrival changes everything.
