The Other Side of Dark is an intricate mystery that will leave you breathless." Holly Black, bestselling author of Tithe

There is too much death in Katie Mullen's life--her mother, her father and now the ghosts. They come to Katie from the other side of dark. People who have died--recently, not so recently, in accidents, as suicide, as tragic pages from the past. When someone dies, their secrets die too. But if a ghost comes back, these secrets can speak again.... And that's what Law Walker wants, a passage to the past, the key to a secret that will change everything. So what if his dad doesn't want him dating a white girl? So what if people think Katie is crazy? Together they're about to uncover a piece of Boston history that is so shocking it was buried centuries ago, and now, nothing will ever seem the same. Get ready to see people--dead and alive--for who they really are.
