Skeletons
When college student Lee Donne agrees to housesit for her grandfather in  his hundred-year-old Oregon farmhouse, she has no idea why it's protected with  such an up-to-date security system. She discovers the reason after an attempt to  scare her out of the house backfires: buried in an abandoned root cellar is the  proof of a hideous crime that occurred long before she was born, one whose  revelation could destroy the political ambitions of a very powerful man and put  Lee, her best friend, and even her grandfather in jeopardy. Wilhelm elevates a  ho-hum plot into a suspenseful narrative that sheds light on a dark chapter in  history and illuminates its effect on three generations of an American family.  This is an unusual coming-of-age story about a young woman who finds her destiny  in a place she never expected to discover it, written with Wilhelm's usual skill  and verve.--Jane Adams--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
