The Night All Riddles Are Solved
"My son, if you are reading this, it means you never dug up the canister buried beneath the Archers' willow, and it has been ten years, seven months, twenty-seven days since my funeral..." -- so begins the unexpected letter Noam receives the day before leaving for a new life overseas. The letter casts Noam and Fern on an uncanny search for proof of life after death, unsettling Noam's last day with memory, coincidence, and a visit to a haunted doll shop.
