jaday said: Ghost for Rent takes a candid look at Wendy's life. Wendy is uprooted from her home in the city and plunked down in the country. To make matters worse her parents are headed for divorce. Her dad doesn't come with them. The house they rent is old and rumored to be haunted. The rumors prove to be true. It's up to Wendy and her brother to solve the mystery and set the ghosts free.
Wendy and her brother's conversations are rife with bickering, but their underlying love can be felt. Any children with siblings will relate to the authentic feel of the bickering between Wend and her brother, Mike. As siblings do, when they find a reason to set aside antagonism, they join forces to unravel the clues to try and solve the mystery. A good paranormal mystery minus any blood and guts makes it perfect for middle grades. Ghost for Rent is a fun and engaging mystery and ghost story.
