Valerie Vesperine thought the whispers had ended.
But silence never lasts at Moonshadow Middle.
When a locker begins slamming open and shut on its own, leaving behind chilling notes that read "I know your name" and "Say mine," Valerie is pulled into another mystery-one that feels closer and more dangerous than before.
With her loyal (and reluctant) friends Sunny and Ash at her side, V.V. uncovers scraps of diary pages and yearbook records pointing to a forgotten student from the 1980s-erased from memory, expelled from the files, and silenced in every way but one.
Now the phantom demands to be heard. Lockers rattle in chorus, shadows chant through the halls, and the entire school seems to beat with a single plea: Say my name.
To set the ghost free, Valerie must confront Principal Gloomworth, dig through secrets buried for decades, and face the truth that names hold power-and remembering can be as dangerous as forgetting.
Dark, clever, and filled with gothic suspense, V.V. and the Phantom Locker continues The Valerie Vesperine Mysteries, perfect for fans of Goosebumps, Enola Holmes, and anyone who has ever wondered what secrets their school might be hiding.
