  A teenager picks up where her late father left off investigating her peculiar elderly neighbors in this spooky series opener. 
   
  Something strange is happening on Goodie Lane . . . 
   
    
   
  Thirteen-year-old Quinn Parker knows that there’s something off about her neighbors. She calls them “the Oldies” because they’ve lived on Goodie Lane for as long as anyone can remember, but they never seem to age. Are they vampires? Or aliens? Or getting secret experimental surgeries? Or is Quinn’s imagination just running wild again? 
   
  If her dad were still around, he’d believe her. When he was alive, they’d come up with all sorts of theories about the Oldies. Now, Quinn’s determined to keep the investigation going with the help of Mike, her neighbor and maybe-crush. They’ll have to search for clues and follow the mystery wherever it leads—even if it’s to the eerie pond at the end of the street that’s said to have its own sinister secrets. But the Oldies are on to them. And the closer Quinn and Mike get to uncovering the answers, the more they realize just how terrifying the truth may be.

  Ancient evil haunts a seaside mansion in the series that’s a “brew of New England Gothic, character driven suspense, and childhood magic” (Christopher Rice, New York Times bestselling author). Five hundred years ago, Isobel the Apostate was burned at the stake after waging war upon her fellow sorcerers, the Order of the Nightwing. With her dying breath she vowed she would return one day, and conquer the world. Now, Isobel has made good on her promise, and returns to modern day Ravenscliff, where the only person who can stand between her and world domination is Devon March. Young Devon’s fight takes him from Ravenscliff to Tudor England and back again, matching wits and magic against an evil that has waited five centuries for revenge. There’s no escaping the endless dangers that Devon faces, and it is only with the help of a strange collection of friends and allies that he has any hope of beating back the Demon Witch.  Praise for Sorcerers of the Nightwing: The Ravenscliff Series Book 1   “The terror begins on page one and never stops! This is my kind of book—filled with magic and dozens of frightening surprises.”—R.L. Stine, New York Times bestselling author   “Seriously scary . . . Best described as Buffy meets teenage Goosebumps . . . Not for the squeamish!”—The Sunday Times

  “A delightful book for young readers about the greatest artist and storyteller of the old American West.” —Raphael James Cristy, author of Charles M. Russell: The Storyteller’s Art   Charles Marion Russell was the first artist to live most of his life in the West, sketching and painting not only from live subjects, but from actual experience. Becoming a frontiersman at a young age in 1880, he rode and worked with horses on a daily basis, something that no other Western artist had done before. This biography for children is the first of its kind about Russell, and the subject’s own vibrant paintings illustrate his life story. It follows Russell from his school days through adulthood and reveals how he held on to his dreams, living out a child’s cowboy fantasy. Charlie Russell not only wanted to experience the West, he wanted to replicate it. It took years of hard work and determination to land a job as a cattleman and longer still for him to master his artistic talents. Through stories, paintings, and clay, wax, and bronze figures, he was able to capture that rare spirit of the region and pass it along to others. He became a famous artist, author, outdoorsman, environmentalist, storyteller, and beloved Western figure—and today, thousands of his paintings, sculptures, and drawings are held in the C. M. Russell Museum in Great Falls, Montana. This book pays tribute to a great Western artist, encouraging every young cowboy to live out his dreams.   “Chock-full of some of his most memorable paintings of the American West . . . A simple but lively text.” —The Bellingham Herald
