In his death grip is a volume of occult lore and a reliquary. His eyes are wide with fright and his mouth a horrified gape where spiders now dwell.

With her trademark candor and compassion, beloved middle-grade writer Barbara Park tells how Phoebe copes with her painful loss in this story filled with sadness, humor--and hope. Chosen by Publishers Weekly as one of their Best Books of 1996. "A full-fledged and fully convincing drama" (Publishers Weekly).
