The Phantom Tower by Keir Graff - OPTIONAL

The Phantom Tower by Keir Graff, 266 pages.  Putnam (Penguin), 2018.  $17

Content: G

BUYING RECOMMENDATION: EL - OPTIONAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

Colm and Mal, twins, have just moved with their mother to Chicago - a job offer she couldn’t resist and an apartment in a well-underpriced downtown building.  As much as the twins detest each other, the mystery of their building is more intriguing.  Why are there so few tenants?  Why are most of the apartments furnished -- with really old junk?  And why does the number 13 appear on the elevator buttons for only one hour a day?

A decent mystery with a spooky twist.  This would be great in paperback.
