Rekulak does a great job with character development: Mallory, who narrates in the first person, has an engaging voice the Maxwells' slightly overbearing parenting style and passive-aggressive quips feel very familiar and Teddy is so three-dimensional that he sometimes feels like a real child.

It really enhances the story and is a nice touch. The author includes the pictures that are being drawn, which helps the story out in a big way, as we’re able to see the pics as Mallory sees them.

Mallory thinks there is a ghost that is taking over Timmy’s body to draw the pictures. It seems to lead to a long rumored story about a death that took place in the house where Mallory now lives back in 1948. He has an imaginary friend named Anya and he draws some weird pictures that seem to tell a story. She gets a job as a nanny to 5 year old Teddy and lives in the guest house at the parents house.

Mallory Quinn is 21 years old a recovering drug addict and has been clean for 18 months now.
