Resumen del Editor

From the New York Times best-selling author of Disney's Villains series comes a ghostly new stand-alone novel that reimagines The Legend of Sleepy Hollow through the eyes of a modern teen.

The two-hundredth anniversary of the Headless Horseman's legendary haunting of Sleepy Hollow is approaching, but Kat van Tassel wants nothing to do with the town's superstitious celebrations. As a descendant of the original Katrina van Tassel, Kat knows she's expected to fulfill her ancestor's legacy by someday marrying her longtime boyfriend and running the prestigious family estate. But Kat dreams of a life outside Sleepy Hollow.

Then Kat meets Isadora, a new girl in town who challenges Kat to reexamine those expectations, opens her eyes to the possibility that ghosts are real, and makes her question who she truly wants to be . . . and be with. When Kat is given the original Katrina's diary, a new legend begins to take shape, one that weaves together the past and the present in eerie ways.

Can Kat uncover a two-hundred-year-old secret, and trace its shocking reverberations in her own life, in time to protect what she truly loves?

Fans of Serena Valentino will delight in this supernatural coming-of-age tale that finally gives the women of Sleepy Hollow a chance to tell their side of the story.

I really enjoyed the plot and how the story progressed at a good rate.

I really wanted more towards the end. so hopefully there's a second book soon.

Slow start but good read

It’s a good twist on the headless horseman of sleeping Hollow by the end of the book I was engaged and I want to see if there’s more

Great retelling

Narration was wonderful. Story was easy to follow along and kept you guessing. Spooky and romantic.

The narrator did a great job reading it 

I love this story it is suspenseful it makes the reader show emotion. There is not one thing that I do not like about this book. 

I thought it was going to be good

I wasn't to happy when she ended up being bi sexual... Why couldn't she fall in love with a man. This book is to woke for me and I was very disappointed! They ruined a good story..

Brilliant take on the original short story

I loved this story. Serena Valentino is a brilliant story teller and puts so much thought in to the original stories and adding her own take. I am not as fond of the audio version because some of the voices and the actors take on the characters was confusing at times. I did not like the voice she gave Kat or Blake, it made them sound a bit annoying.

Such a wonderful story 🎃

I absolutely enjoyed this well put together piece of art.

Serena Valentino really did a wonderful job on this book. I love the

Interesting Read! Twists to come!

Serena is my favorite author. I found her via her Villain's books, and this one does not disappoint. This book is full of hidden clues and twists. I got through it in 2 days because I enjoyed it so much.
