About This Book

New York Times bestseller E. K. Johnston???s middle-grade debut is an utterly charming, witty, and gloriously inclusive magic-tinged caper in the Canadian wilderness.Hayley Rilko loves hockey, but since her last name is Rilko, everyone in Canada knows she???s a carrier of the most notorious curse in sports history. It's common knowledge that as soon as she gets her third period, her hockey career will be over. If she so much as sets foot on a rink, people will die???unless she and her cousins can find and burn the corpse of their cursed great grandfather, lost somewhere in the northern swamps. But first they'll have to have a serious conversation with his ghost and distract their grandparents.
