Leigh Baxton is scared her mom will come back from the dead - just like the prom queen did.

While the town goes crazy over the news, Leigh bikes to the local cemetery and buries some of her mom's things in her grave to keep her there. When the hot and mysterious caretaker warns her not to give gifts to the dead, Leigh cranks up her punk music and keeps digging.

Two dead sorceresses evicted the prom queen from her grave to bury someone who offered certain gifts. Bury them alive, that is, then resurrect them to create a trio of undead powerful enough to free the darkest sorceress ever.

With help from the caretaker and the dead prom queen, Leigh must find out what's so special about the gifts she gave, and why the sorceresses are stalking her and her sister. If she doesn't, she'll either lose another loved one or have to give the ultimate gift to the dead - herself.

The Grave Winner Series

It was official - the graveyard in daylight was way better than at night. The sun shined brightly, giving Dad, Darby, and me plenty of light to see. Wind blew like it was supposed to. The tree roots and branches were in their normal places. The ground wasn't shaking. Even the beer cans and bottles were gone. 


And, and as far as I could tell, no dead ladies with glowing blue eyes hung around to drag me across the graves. Hurray for that. The thought of their icicle hands touching me drove spikes of shivers between my shoulder blades. I kept shooting glances behind me just to be sure those ladies weren't around. 


Yellow crime scene tape bordered off an area inside a cluster of normal-looking trees. All but three hadn't been normal the night before. One more thing to add to the growing list of confusing. I remember quite vividly pulling up clumps of crispy, black grass. Why were Sarah's footprints the only black grass around?
