Description: Ten-year-old Helen and her summer guardian, Flora, are isolated together in Helen's decaying family house while her father does secret war work in Oak Ridge. Helen lost her mother at three, and the beloved grandmother who raised her just died. Fiercely imaginative, she is desperate to keep her house's ghosts and stories intact. Flora, her mother's first cousin, is determined to do her best for Helen. Their relationship and its fallout will haunt Helen for the rest of her life.  (Bestseller)
