Author - Kathryn White
Genre - Mystery story told in flashback
Plot summary - Girl Quenna finds a small object called a Tupilak. She thinks it is making all her bad troubles. She decides to take it back to where it came from though she has trouble along the way.
Favourite character - Quenna because she was all about the future but still thought about the gods and the traditional way of life.
