The Ghost Sonata (Gilda Joyce)

by Jennifer Allison

The Ghost Sonata (Gilda Joyce) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

When her best friend, Wendy Choy, qualifies to compete in an international piano competition in Oxford, England, irrepressible Gilda Joyce finds a way to get an invitation herself as a page-turner. Wendy settles into an exhausting practice schedule, made worse by strange nightmares, while Gilda finds herself falling in love with a British boy. But when Wendy discovers a ghostly message written in the frost on her window, Gilda realizes her friends life could be in danger, and the key to solving the mystery may be in learning the truth behind the untimely death of a previous piano virtuoso.

Review:

"The novel is wonderfully paced and clues are dropped subtly as the story progresses. Gilda's fascination with Brit-speak also provides a healthy dose of humor." School Library Journal

Synopsis:

When Gilda lands a summer internship at Washington, D.C.'s, International SpyMuseum, she finds herself embroiled in both a museum haunting and a real caseof espionage, in this fourth installment of Allison's series. 5 1/2 x8 1/4.
