Synopsis

Twelve-year-old Hazel Woods has always had an unusual knack for sleuthing. Some may call it snooping, but all she really wants is to solve mysteries around town. So, when she not-so-accidentally overhears her brother Den planning to sneak into the cemetery at night for an epic game of hide-and-seek, she decides to secretly tag along. This seems like the perfect opportunity to investigate the claims that the cemetery is haunted.

But the moment the game ends, Hazel realizes something is very, very wrong. From her hiding spot in the bushes, she overhears that her brother's best friend, Everett, is missing. Everyone else was found by the seeker but there's no sign of Everett anywhere. It's as if he just . . . vanished.

Hazel and Den are determined to find Everett before it's too late. But as they begin to unravel the terrifying clues that started appearing since that night in the graveyard—eerie whispers that sound like someone counting, the intermittent smell of smoke, and the cold, lost presence that follows them everywhere, she's not sure what they are dealing with. But Everett needs more than search parties and scent-tracking dogs to find him, especially if his disappearance is tied to the history of the cemetery, and the lost, century-old spirits that might still be trapped there . . .

Goodreads review by Lindsay on March 08, 2023

This book is special to me, friends. Like many of my books, it features ghosts (yay!), but it also features themes of family, friendship, and bravery. In addition, it has solid roots in Chicagoland history that I'm excited to shine a light on. Request a digital ARC on Edelweisss here: [URL not allowed]......more

One of my favorite things about Lindsay Currie's books is that she covers parts of history that are "lost" or "forgotten" and maybe you haven't heard of before. However, I don't want to share which part of history this covers because I feel like it would spoil the book. And I think it's better going......more

I love Currie’s middle grade work and this was another great example. Spooky and atmospheric this was a great tale; friendship, loyalty and grief filled the pages and at times it was downright scary. I love the slow burn of a Currie ghost story and this was pretty immense.......more

It Found Us was my first book by Lindsay Currie and I really enjoyed it! I liked the mystery being set around a graveyard, The atmosphere was wonderful!. I also liked the reveal and learning a bit of history, as this was based on a true event. I recommend this one for fans of spooky middle grade!......more

Goodreads review by Horror on September 05, 2023

Hazel is 12 years old and loves to solve any mysteries she can find. Some people might call it spying but she would rather consider it a talent for investigation and solving mysterious cases. One night she follows her brother to the cemetery where he is going to play a classic game of Hide and Seek.......more
