"Brilliant, unusual writing."—Chicago Tribune
On the banks of the Mississippi River, Tennyson Fontaine and her sister, Hattie, play endless games of hide-and-seek and make up fantastical stories about the latest adventures of their wild dog, Jos. But when their mother doesn't come home and their father sets off to find her, the sisters are whisked away to Aigredoux, the once-grand plantation of their ancestors, now in ruin.
Caught in a strange web of time, dreams, and history, Tennyson comes up with a plan to shine light on Aigredoux's past and bring her mother home. But like so many plans, Tennyson's has unexpected consequences. . . .
Lesley M. M. Blume weaves a heartbreakingly evocative story, steeped in Southern lore, about a child's struggle to come to terms with her family's dark past.

Tennyson
I didn't like this. I thought it started out interestingly enough, but it quickly went downhill. I waited the whole book for it to become actually scary but I didn't find it creepy. I also felt that even though this is a middle grade book, and my expectations of maturity shouldn't have been overly high, it become increasingly MORE juvenile as the book went went on. The ending was terrible. It wasn't an ending at all, merely a cop out. I couldn't believe the author let the book end the way it did, and there is no sequel so that's just it I suppose. I wasn't impressed.
