Frank thought her summer couldn’t get any worse—until big, weird, smelly Nick Underbridge rescues her from a bully, and she winds up at his house.
Frank quickly realizes there’s more to Nick than meets the eye. When she’s at his house, she hears the strangest, most beautiful music, music which leads her to a mysterious, hidden door. Beyond the door are amazing creatures that she never even dreamed could be real. For the first time in forever, Frank feels happy . . . and she and Nick start to become friends.
But Nick’s incredible secrets are also accompanied by great danger. Frank must figure out how to help her new friend, the same way that he has helped her.

Kritikerstimmen
A.F. Harrold's work is masterfully paced and stunningly crafted . . . Levi Pinfold's striking black-and-white illustrations add mood, creating a reading experience similar to Patrick Ness's A Monster Calls with the chills and growing terror of Neil Gaiman's Coraline. (starred review)
Strong characterizations and a good dose of spookiness are standouts in this illustrated novel . . . Hand to fans of Neil Gaiman’s Coraline, Holly Black’s Doll Bones, and other books that balance scariness and substance. (starred review)
Pinfold's atmospheric illustrations, darkly menacing and mysterious by turns, add to the contemporary folk-tale atmosphere . . . Captivating. (starred review)
Fairy tale, fable, and dream . . . Harrold’s incisive, poetic way with words . . . intensifies the vague darkness of his otherworldly imagery. Pinfold’s shadowy art deepens the story’s air of mystery and threat. (starred review)
A haunting, sorrowful story tinged with magic and hope.
Friendship, acceptance, trust, and decency weave their magic throughout Harrold’s tale . . . Lush black-and-white illustrations by Pinfold enhance the secrecy, wonder, and mood of the story.
British poet Harrold writes with an engaging voice rich with character . . . Spot illustrations and immersive double-page black and white drawings are captivating in their intricacy and melancholy, blending perfectly with the poignant tone that resonates through the whole novel.
Harrold offers an appealingly childcentric world with hefty doses of scare and malevolence . . . Wonderfully entertaining. (starred review)
[An] inventive mix of humor and suspense . . . A great choice for readers who like fantastic tales with a dose of true scariness. (starred review)
Most affecting and lovely when describing powerful relationships.
Pinfold’s story has a timeless quality . . . A great pick for storytime, bedtime, anytime. (starred review)
Fear, fun, and just dripping with beauty. (starred review)
Quirky, funny, and often heart-stopping. (starred review)
Pinfold’s interiors are crammed with quirky detail. (starred review)
