Welcome to YA Authors Week!
Yes, author Mark Lance's book centers around two teenage girls, but this book, The Weber House, has so much more than just the girls figuring out the mystery. There's the friendship, of course, but there's history and brilliance in these pages. You don't want to miss out on our episode!
About the book:
Saying goodbye to her eighth-grade friends was bad enough. But moving into an abandoned house in a run-down town on the Maine seacoast? And the locals say it’s haunted? You’ve got to be kidding.
Knowing nobody in her new surroundings, Nicole Kelly is befriended by another outcast, a classmate fiercely proud of her Native American heritage. Rejecting prejudice and superstition in favor of science and logic, the girls team up to search for a legendary treasure. They apply math and science lessons in centuries-old tunnels and on the Atlantic Ocean. But this is no game. Someone else, armed not with theorems but rather an assassin’s knife, is also searching, and watching their every move. The girls think they are hunters. In fact, they are the prey.
