Wait Till Helen Comes is a book about two kids, Molly and Michael, who are living with their mother, Jean; their stepfather, Dave; and their stepsister, Heather. The family lives in Baltimore, but move out to an old church in the country. The new house has a graveyard in the backyard, and Molly is afraid that there is a ghost living out there due to Heather’s weird behavior. Molly and Michael do not get along well with Heather, as the little seven-year-old is always trying to make their life difficult and get them in trouble with Dave. When Heather starts threatening the two kids with Helen, Michael thinks it’s a joke, while Molly begins to take it seriously. As they get used to their new house, Heather’s behavior starts to get even worse. She hardly ever spends time at home, and puts herself in positions which could possibly kill her. While Molly is certain the ghost is real, she has to try to get everyone else to believe her, and try to save Heather at the same time.

When fourteen-year-old Deborah Hill and her seven-year-old sister Olivia Hill are sent to stay with their stern Aunt Susan at the imposing Hill Manor, they expect an autumn of long days and strict rules. What they don't expect is the creeping dread that seeps through the walls of the house or the haunting presence of the town's dark history lurking just beneath the surface. As Debbie struggles to shield Livy from the mysteries of their new home, her sister grows increasingly attached to an "imaginary friend." But Livy's peculiar behavior and whispered secrets hint at something far more sinister-something tied to Hill Manor's past and a curse that refuses to be buried. With the help of a loyal friend and an unlikely ally, Debbie delves into a chilling tale of betrayal, revenge, and sacrifice. Time is running out, and as the truth unfolds, Debbie must confront her deepest fears to save her sister before it's too late. Hill Manor hides more than just family secrets. Some stories refuse to stay in the past.
