The Quinn house is stuffed with people. Everyone from the church must be here. Dad keeps muttering something about sardines. It smells like stinky cheese and stinkier perfume. But at least they have glorious central air. I scarf down a plate of mini meatballs, mini quiche, and stuffed mushrooms before shaking free of Dad so I can ease in and out of conversations.

While he thinks I'm looking for a bathroom, I spot April across the living room. She's standing and talking to the man she sat beside at the church—probably her dad. Will she be more or less likely to talk to me here? She won't be able to cause a scene. I hope.

I circle around Mr. and Mrs. Friedman arguing about money.

"You take great care of the garden. We can fire Dinesh. You don't need him to prune your bush…"

I step away before he finishes his sentence.

I'm about ten feet from April when I spot the chair beside her begin to shake. It looks like an earthquake is happening only in that spot of the house. No one around seems to notice. It jerks to the side, almost knocking into the back of April's knees. Then it jerks back.

I know Linzy is next to it, making it move, but she's not showing herself. I mean, it has to be Linzy. Who else is invisible, can move a chair, and hates April?

The chair lifts a couple of inches off the ground, and I can't help but grin. Linzy would be great at a séance. Too bad I didn't have any friends to freak out.

The chair wobbles. Linzy is trying to hit her with it. For some reason, Linzy isn't as strong or determined today as she was with Eli. That doesn't mean she can't hurt April though.

As the chair swings at April, I race forward.
