Do you know what the title of this book is?
I read a book when I was younger and can't remember many details but I'm hoping someone out there can help me out. On the cover was a castle or something like it set up a cliff. I think the book was about a woman that moves to the castle for some reason (maybe she married someone that lived there) and she discovers all sorts of weird things about the castle and the people that live there. It was considered a mystery I think and it would have been suitable for a middle school age child to read but possibly on a high school level. If you have ANY idea what the title of this book is please let me know. It's driving me crazy that I can't remember it!
I'm sure there was a boy in it of some sort but the main character was a woman. I couldn't tell you about the lightstone thing... can't remember any more details. :( What's the name of the book you are thinking of?

I don't think either is the correct one, but the closest matches I found were:
Ghost of Dark Harbor by Clarissa Ross " When her young daughter plunged over the cliff to her death, Joyce Mills had a breakdown and was sent to a mental institution. Now, as she walked again through the dark passages of Mills Castle, built upon a high rock, a series of terrifying occurences lay in wait for her. Her scarf was found tightly tied around a strangled cat's neck... a woman's gruesomely bloody face appeared in her mirror as she watched in horror... and the phantom ghost of long-dead Captain Peter Mills, who built thhe huge castle - and then killed himself in it - threatened her fragile sanity...indeed, her very life!"
Satan's Rock by Marilyn Ross "Lucy Ashton become's the hunted mistress of Satan's Rock, a csatle hiding a pirate's treasure- and a murderer!" "Back cover blurb:
Does Lucy ashton's Fiancé Pursue Her For Her Love —Or Her Life?
Lucy Ashton had always laughed at the ancient legend of Satan's Rock. But after surviving several near-fatal accidents, she gives greater credence to the story of a ghostly figure sworn to kill anyone who dares to unearth the treasure hidden in the murky mansion.
Horrified, Lucy realizes that someone — or something is out to destroy her. Who? Why? Could it be her stepfather? Or the mysterious stranger who invades Satan's Rock to hunt for gold?
Terrified, Lucy turns to the one person she trusts —her fiance. As she looks into his eyes, she sees a glitter —not of love, but of greed...."

I can't help you, but you might want to ask someone who works in a library. Just go to the nearest library and ask the people who work there. Once you find out the title please let me know, for it sounds like a really nice nice book.

Was the book about the girl or was there a boy too? Did it involve lightstones? I have a vague memory of a book but i don't know if it is the one you need.
