Relocating to Prescott Junction, Maine (or Podunk Junction) Ashlyn Caverhill is subject to the torments of her Grandmother after a court rules her a minor with one of two options: relocated to Maine from Toronto and be with family; or get a foster family.Ashlyn seems to be already keen about the family curse, that she will suffer it but not necessarily what it's specifics are. As time passes do we find out that a) in her grandmother's basement is a prescient radio which has been infused with a power unlike any radio ever before and b) running through the town is a ghost train who's conductor is eager to possess the Caverhill souls, or any other person looking for a ticket out.As things wind down and Ashlyn realizes her friends are in trouble as is the soul of her long departed father she is informed... in a way, by her radio what it is she needs to do so as to save the souls of those aboard.A young adult read that is mushy at points, has it's supernatural element and the stereotypic rebellious teen all culminating to save the day. A well written story that offers the riders redemption at the `end of the line'.
