#tbt features another book by Joseph Bruchac. Skeleton Man is a modern retelling of the Native American legend. Sixth grader Molly awakens to learn that her parents are missing and an "uncle" she never met is now her guardian. He allows her to go to school, but locks her into her bedroom each night. She's terrified of this creepy man, but can't get an adult to believe her. How can she escape her bedroom, especially when she learns she's being watched by a hidden camera? More importantly, are her parents still alive?
Skeleton Man is a short, scary read. It was published in 2001 and was followed by a sequel, The Return of Skeleton Man in 2008.
