Bookroo's summary
Sisters Mary Rose and Jo-Beth find themselves trapped in a mysterious library after their car runs out of gas. As the night unfolds, they must confront eerie noises and strange occurrences. Is the library haunted by banshees, as Jo-Beth fears, or is there a rational explanation, as Mary Rose insists? With each passing moment, the sisters must navigate their fears and uncover the truth behind the library's secrets. Will they escape before the night ends, or will the library's mysteries consume them?
From the publisher
Mary Rose and Jo-Beth are sisters who hardly ever agree on anything, but they both feel as if this night will never end. First their car runs out of gas in an unfamiliar city and their father goes in search of a gas station. Then Jo-Beth makes Mary Rose go with her to find a bathroom and they stumble across a curious old library. And then, worst of all, they get locked in! But their troubles are just beginning. Is Jo-Beth right about the library being haunted by banshees? Or is there a logical explanation, as Mary Rose claims?
