Bad Magic (The Bad Books)

Description:

When odd words appear on the wall of Clay's school's walls, he is sent to Earth Ranch as a punishment. Excuse me, consequence. An odd ranch on an odd island filled to the brim with odd things, odd incidents and odd situations. Mysteries crop up- The Tempest for some reason having similarities to camp, a pilot's odd warning, a possible ghost girl locked up in an abandoned library, the caretaker of the library oddly churlish, a familiar dog locked up in a barn, a kleptomaniac girl who slips little things here and there, odd appearances of old quotes- these mysteries are somehow all connected...
