The Name Of The Star | August 24, 2011

by Maureen Johnson (Penguin, Sept. 2011)

The+Name+Of+The+Star

Boarding school mischief mixes with an eerie ghost story in the new Maureen Johnson. When Rory moves to London, she expects new friends, new culture, maybe a new boyfriend. Then a rash of murders start replicating Jack the Ripper’s killings. Rory is drawn into the mystery when she sees a suspect visible to no one else. Atmospheric and suspenseful with a dash of romance—tough to put down!
