Books with author June Capossela Kempf

Julia Greene, ten year old poster child of ‘politeness’ is suddenly thrust into a struggle between right and wrong. In the beginning, she is fascinated by the beguiling Victorian doll house occupying the center of the shop's front window. When lady Marguerite observes Julia's good manners and endearing qualities, she makes an offer the girl can't resist. But, there is one condition: to stay away from the double doors marked with the sign ’Keep Out’ in the back of the store. Soon Julia becomes tormented with temptation and must call upon all her strength to find the surprising answer to the perplexing mystery. Can she keep her promise, to Lady Marguerite, the proprietor of a mysterious dollhouse shop that suddenly appeared on Main Street; or give into temptation, betraying her benevolent mentor? Julia’s good intention, to follow the one directive Lady Marguerite imposed, is in jeopardy. As more and more puzzling events unfold, her resolve begins to wane. Soon Julia becomes obsessed with finding the answers to some very significant questions.
