The Ghost Next Door

by St. John, Wylly Folk.

Children's book from the 1970's. Main character (Sherry) goes to spend some time with her Aunt during the summer. Sherry is never told that she had a half-sister, Miranda, who drowned. Strange things start to happen and clues to Miranda's existence that Sherry could not know. Very good read and a favorite for many!
