The Diviners is a very good story set in 1926 New York. A girl named Evie is sent to New York City after an unfortunate altercation in her hometown of Zenith, Ohio. She is a big fan of cities, and is ecstatic to get there. However, she is sent to live with her uncle who has an obsession with anything paranormal. Evie herself has an unnatural gift which she must hide. During this, a murderer called the Pentacle Killer is ravaging New York, killing citizens in gruesome ways. Evie finds out that her gift may be the very thing that can save her new home. I loved this story. It is very well-written and identical to what it would be like to live in 1926 New York. The overall plot is mature, so I would give it 7th grade and up. I thoroughly enjoyed every part of this, and I am engrossed in Lair of Dreams (the second book in the series).
