Elsie battles a terrifying ghost to keep her best friend around forever. But does forever have too much of a cost? Elsie's best friend, Roman, is dying. But Roman has a plan to escape death. He wants to be resurrected through the powers of the Bone Tree and the curse of the Woman in White, Mary Simon, whose body lies beneath the tree. Terrified, yet determined not to lose him. Elsie promises Roman to summon Mary's ghost and the powers of the Bone Tree to bring him back when he dies. When the Bone Tree's magic works and Roman resurrects, Elsie vows to do anything to keep him around, even if that means battling an angry, screeching banshee, with talons for fingers. But what Elsie doesn't realize is that the cost of keeping Roman around may be too high. When the Woman in White kidnaps Roman's brother, Jake, and threatens to take his life as revenge, Elsie must choose between saving the lives of many from the deadly grasp of Mary Simon, the Woman in White, or keeping her best friend.

Bone Tree: What lies beneath may be more than friendship.

Cabby Potts, Duchess of Dirt

"A rousing read"- Kirkus Reviews\n"Great historical detail and wonderful, appealing characters in this delightful story told by the clever Cabby Potts, a kindhearted Kansas prairie girl who’s filled with gumption and grit." - Anne O'Brien Carelli, author of Skylark & Wallcreeper 
"This historical fiction story set in the 1870’s, is a fast-paced trip to the days of homesteading on the Kansas prairies.... The author does a wonderful job grounding the reader in time and place with period details and appropriate phrasing and language of the era.... The characters are well-rounded and engaging, making for a quick read. Readers will enjoy Cabby’s antics and feisty demeanor as she navigates the unfamiliar world of the wealthy. A highly recommended debut. " - Darlene Beck Jacobson, author of Wheels of Change and Wishes, Dares, and How to Stand up to a Bully.

Can Cabby find the courage to stand up for her family, a Native American friend, and an entire community threatened by land-grabbers? A historical middle-grade novel that drops you into 1870’s Kansas, with humor, heart, and a dash of romance.
