Here's a blurb to give you a bit more info.
Lilly was only four years old when her mother kissed her
goodbye and told her she would be right back. And after seven years, Lilly
still wonders what happened to her. For the last seven years, Lilly has been
living at the Sacred Heart Orphanage across the highway from Skullhaven
Cemetery. It’s a spooky place for a timid girl. Especially at night.
Sister Carmen understands Lilly's fears, and she gives Lily
a necklace with an ancient cross and tells her it will protect her. But it does
more than that! Its mysterious power allows Lilly to see spirits who haven’t
crossed over.
When the wealthy and ruthless Egyptian antiquities dealer Horus Hawass visits the Sacred Heart Orphanage and sees Lilly’s necklace,
he recognizes it immediately as the priceless Golden Ankh of the ancient
Egyptian Queen Nefertiti. The greedy Horus Hawass quickly hatches a plan to
acquire it for himself, and he calls in a few of his seedy associates.
After kidnapping Lilly, he gives her an ultimatum: She can either give him the Golden Ankh, or she can join her mother in Skullhaven Cemetery—forever.
Skullhaven is a fun adventure with a hint of history, a bit of mystery, and a lot of complexity that will keep the middle-grade reader wondering what's going to happen next!
