From School Library Journal
Grade 4-6 Charlie Hocking meets a bizarre old woman in an apparently abandoned house, but when he tells his family about it, they suspect he is lying. A desire to prove his innocence inspires him to investigate further. His investigations eventually lead him and his cousin Rachel to the startling conclusion that the bizarre, increasingly youthful woman is actually a ghost, bent on revenge against the townspeople of Pike River. The Pike River Phantom is a fast-paced, entertaining, and mildly scary story. The characters are believable and sympathetic, especially Charlie and his slightly arrogant yet courageous cousin Rachel. A subplot concerning Charlie's learning not to be ashamed of his ex-convict father is a little pat, but does not interfere with the main action of the story. A fine addition to Wright's other popular books for young readers. Ruth Sadasivan, Toledo-Lucas County Public Library, Ohio
