About The Children of Room 56

From the publisher's feed

Spiritsford. The lakes have teeth. The walls have eyes. There's a hotel for ghosts in the woods. Sam Moss and her tight-knit group of friends have been investigating the mysteries of Spiritsford since they were children, and they enjoy it... until one of their own goes missing.
