Breach of the Soul - Richard T. Wilson

Fifteen-year-old Julie runs away from her abusive parents, heading for the shelter of an abandoned shack in the woods, remembered from childhood, and discovers it far from empty. A duplicitous witch, a mysterious teen ghost from the 80s, and, later, a collection of devils await her on the other side of the door. The helpful ghost ultimately helps her escape, but first she must navigate the hellscape beneath them - home to the diabolical Wood Devils (who look suspiciously like her neighbors). The second part of the book continues in the world of the 'Halloween Girl' as the Wood Devils attempt to extend their evil reach through a campaign of lies and bigotry. Julie joins Charlotte, Poe and their faithful feline, Simone, to uncover who or what is really behind two senseless murders in Crystal Springs, as the 'Halloween Girl simultaneously struggles with her faith in humanity.
