Overview

When ten-year-old twins Lily and Leo move into Edmonton's historic Princess Theatre, they expect creaky floors and dusty curtains-not a ghost. But the theatre is not empty. A figure in a flowing white dress haunts the balcony. Faint footsteps echo through empty hallways. And somewhere in the darkness, someone is humming an old, forgotten song. The locals call her ""The Woman in White""-a legend, a story to tell tourists. But to Lily, who feels things others can't, she's something more: a girl named Eleanor, trapped and waiting, reaching across a century for someone to notice her. With the help of their researcher brother Leo and a skeptical new friend named Jasper, Lily embarks on a journey to uncover Eleanor's secret. What they find is not a horror story, but a heart-breaking tale of love and loss-of a brother who went to war and never came home, of letters hidden for a hundred years, and of a promise that refused to die. The Woman in White of Edmonton's Princess Theatre is a spellbinding middle-grade novel about courage, connection, and the ghosts we carry in our hearts. Based on the real legend of Edmonton's most famous theatre, this story reminds us that sometimes the scariest things are just lonely-and that love, real love, never truly fades. For every child who's ever wondered what hides in the shadows-and hoped it might be something wonderful.
