A Malaysian folk tale
comes to life in this emotionally layered, chilling middle grade debut, perfect
for fans of The Book of Boy and The Jumbies.

I am a dark spirit, the
ghost announced grandly. I am your
inheritance, your grandmother’s legacy. I am yours to command.

Suraya is delighted when her witch
grandmother gifts her a pelesit. She names her ghostly companion Pink, and the
two quickly become inseparable.

But Suraya doesn’t know that
pelesits have a dark side—and when Pink’s shadows threaten to consume them
both, they must find enough light to survive . before they are both lost to
the darkness.

Fans of Holly Black’s Doll
Bones and Tahereh Mafi’s Furthermore series will love this ghostly middle
grade debut that explores jealousy, love, and the extraordinary power of
friendship.
