The Secrets Beneath by Kathleen Fuller

Bekah has a little nose problem. The vacant house next door has captured her interest and when an old man shows up, digging little holes, at night, her curiosity is aroused. When her cousin Amanda arrives to spend the school year, no one will tell her why. Further, Amanda is silent and spends a lot of time either in her room or in the barn. When Bekah is told to mind her own business, she starts keeping secrets, telling secrets, and getting into mischief. What is the old man's secret? What is Amanda's secret? Will Bekah solve the mystery? A good youth book. Sandy Penton.
