Ekenay and his sister, Emily, didn't want to move to Garnite Harbor. Their new home is a rundown old farm surrounded by woods, miles from town. The local kids treat Ekenay and Emily as snobby outsiders and frighten them with strange stories about their house and a witch called Old Auntie. Emily withdraws further into herself, holding long conversations with her doll, and their parents grow increasingly unhappy with their new surroundings. At first Ekenay dismisses the tales of the witch and her man-eating razorback hog, Bloody Bones, as superstitious nonsens, but gradually he is forced to believe that Emily is in real danger. When Emily vanishes, he knows she's been "Took" and he must summon all his courage to confront Old Auntie and take his sister back.
