Twin brothers discover their new home is also a portal to a parallel
dimension in this spine-chilling middle-grade adventure, perfect for
fans of The Mysterious Benedict Society--now available in paperback!
Twelve-year-old twins Colm and Mal might look identical, but they're
different in just about every other way. The one thing they can agree on
is that neither brother wants to move to Chicago for a fresh start with
their mom two years after their dad's death.
The boys soon discover that their new apartment building, Brunhild
Tower, is full of strange quirks: a mysterious Princess who warns them
not to wander the building at midday, eerie sounds coming from the
walls, and an elevator that's missing a button for the thirteenth floor.
Then one afternoon, that button appears, catapulting the brothers and
their inquisitive new neighbor, Tamika, into a parallel dimension and a
twin building stuck in time, where the spirits of all the former
residents of Brunhild Tower live on, trapped by an ancient curse. Now,
Colm, Mal, and Tamika must race against time to solve the mystery of the
phantom tower--or risk spending an eternity as ghosts themselves.
