Suddenly I got a great shock. I saw him there - on top of the tower. Then I got a second shock. The man on the tower was not the Master. I felt cold and afraid. Everything was quiet; nothing moved.This week's book is The Turn of the Screw in Oxford Dominoes series.
Do you believe the existence of ghost? This story is very strange and horrible...
A young woman came to work at country to work as a governess for two children, Miles and Flora. Flora was very beautiful girl and tought her about the large house with little secrets. Miles went to school, so he came back home during the school holidays. One day, a letter came from Miles's school and it said that Miles had expelled from his school. But the woman and the housekeeper, Mrs Grose didn't know the reason. Like these, there are some strange things about the house and the children.

This story is very strange and difficult to understand for me, but I felt the woman is very brave.
This book sounds a little scary and very interesting. Were you scared as you read? Has it been made into a movie?
