SynopsisFrom the moment Rachel's family takes in her orphaned cousin Julia, strange things start to happen. Rachel grows suspicious but soon finds herself alienated from her own life. Julia seems to have enchanted everyone to turn against her, leaving Rachel on her own to try and prove that Julia is a witch. One thing about Julia is certain-she is not who she says she is, and Rachel's family is in grave danger.
I first read this when I was in elementary school in the Scholastic Book Club I only got it as a child because the cover was so interesting which was a different color than the one I'm reviewing however the story is the same it is creepy easy to read easy to understand and I just had to add it to my adult collection even though it was considered a children's book at that time reading it again after all these years it's just as good just as interesting just as creepy I see it as a well-written story for adults as well
