      abstract = {Twelve-year-old Abilene Tucker is the daughter of a  drifter who, in the summer of 1936, sends her to stay with  an old friend in Manifest, Kansas, where he grew up, and  where she hopes to find out some things about his past.  Over the summer she pieces together his story. Having heard  stories about Manifest, Abilene is disappointed to find  that it's just a dried-up, worn-out old town. But her  disappointment quickly turns to excitement when she  discovers a hidden cigar box full of mementos, including  some old letters that mention a spy known as the Rattler.  These mysterious letters send Abilene and her new friends,  Lettie and Ruthanne, on an honest-to-goodness spy hunt,  even though they are warned to "Leave Well Enough Alone."  Abilene throws all caution aside when she heads down the  mysterious Path to Perdition to pay a debt to the reclusive  Miss Sadie, a diviner who only tells stories from the past.  It seems that Manifest's history is full of colorful and  shadowy characters--and long-held secrets. The more Abilene  hears, the more determined she is to learn just what role  her father played in that history. And as Manifest's  secrets are laid bare one by one, Abilene begins to weave  her own story into the fabric of the town.},
