Spiritualists by Kristin O'Donnell Tubb: Hardcover; 416 pages / English

[S&S Books for Young Readers] The Witch Haven meets Divine Rivals in this magical, “high-stakes page-turner of a thriller” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) of a young clairvoyant who gets dragged into a dangerous game of revenge alongside a mysterious thief in early 1900s New York City. Stella Bohdan is never alone—never—and yet she is the loneliest person she knows, dead or alive. A gifted psychic who can hear the voices of spirits, all Stella wants is to con enough people to survive on the brutal New York City streets and find a way to deal with the tragic death of her sister. Performing seances in parlor rooms and tarot readings by candlelight, Stella is barely holding on. Until she meets Pax, a mysterious young man who offers Stella an invitation and a promise: Join a secret group of talented mystics who explore the darker realms of spiritualism, and together they will get revenge on her sister’s killer. But how can Stella admit she is the reason her sister is dead? In the hope of righting past wrongs, Stella joins Pax and his team of mystics. It’s soon clear there is more behind their partnership than just vengeance. They must tread carefully though, because in the world of spiritualism, not everything is what it seems—especially when communing with the unknown.
