An interesting short-ish novel. An English teen goes to an Art Summer Camp where he meets a mysterious girl with a desperate secret. The paranormal aspects are fascinating and written with a sense of growing fear. The ending is perhaps a little pat, but the twist at the end makes it believable. I liked it a lot.
