Wonders of the Invisible World

For fans of Patrick Ness and Tom McNeal comes a page-turning novel thatâ€™s part ghost story, part love story.
Â
Aidan Lockwood lives in a sleepy farming community known for its cattle ranches and not much else. That is, until Jarrod, a friend he hasnâ€™t seen in years, moves back to town. Itâ€™s Jarrod who opens Aidanâ€™s eyes to events heâ€™s long since forgotten, and who awakes in him feelings that go beyond mere friendship. But as Aidanâ€™s memories return, so do some unsettling truths about his family. As Aidan begins to probe into long-buried secrets, the lines between the past and the present, tales and truths, friends and lovers begin to blur, and Aidan will need to confront a family curse before he can lay claim to his life once more.
