Carol Beach York Books Overview

Good Charlotte

When a mysterious girl with blue hair shows up at the Good Day Orphanage one day, Tatty believes that the girl must be a princess. Reissue.

Takers and Returners

It was a hot day and they had already seen the movie at the only theater in town. Yet the game that Julian devised to relieve the boredom the game of Takers and Returners was to affect the lives of all the children who took part in it. Julian was fifteen, and thirteen year old Ellen had always thought she might marry him someday that is, until Mother explained that he had a kind of fatal fascination. It was the quality that made you want to follow his leadership. Otherwise, they would never have let the game get out of hand the way it did, for it was an unusual, frightening game, of which the adults would not have approved. In this skillfully written suspense story Carol Beach York provides an atmosphere so full of tension and anxiety that it becomes almost un bearable, and the reader soon realizes that it is also a story of evil and that the game the children play is one no one can win.

The Witch Lady Mystery

A young boy is convinced that the old lady whose leaves he rakes is a witch especially when his own mother sees the old woman disappear.

Revenge of the Dolls

Alice, Trissy and their cousin Paulie are visitors in the dark old house of Aunt Sarah and faded, middle aged Cousin Grace. It’s a grim house, filled with shadows, and Aunt Sarah matches it old, bitter, silent, wrapped up in the crude and ugly dolls she has devoted herself or making. They talked to her, she said. The girls never dared to touch Aunt Sarah’s dolls, but Paulie was different. He threw one in the fire, as the other dolls watched with their glittering button eyes. Now Aunt Sarah was making another doll just like him. ‘It’s for Paulie,’ she said. A master of suspense and mood relates one of her most chilling tales in this story of three children and their brush with the madness of an evil old woman and the little dolls that do her bidding.

When Midnight Comes

Cousin Wilma is peculiar; she is heavy and oafish, and when she comes to the Bridgeport family for a nice visit everything seems to go wrong. It begins with a clock that makes noise when it never had before. Then there are Mrs. Bridgeport’s restless nights, Joan’s school trouble, and Emily’s fear of sleeping. It all seems to begin when Wilma arrives, but can she be the reason for all these strange happenings? The Bridgeport family will only find out When Midnight Comes.
