Baby Sitters Club 35 - Stacey and the Mystery of Stoneybrook
To a New York City girl like Stacey, the fact that an old--supposedly haunted--house in Stoneybrook is being torn down is no big deal. But then her friend Kristy discovers the house was built on a graveyard, and when Stacey sees a horrible face in one of the windows, she wonders if the house really could be haunted!
Baby-sitting for the Pike family at the Jersey shore, Stacey and Mary Anne anticipate two weeks of sun, sand, and boys, and when Stacey falls for a cute lifeguard, Mary Anne winds up doing the work of two baby-sitters.
The truth about Stacey is that she has diabetes, a fact she keeps secret from everyone except her new friends in the Baby-sitters Club. But Stacey's condition causes a lot of problems, and she has to miss a lot of BSC meetings. Can she find a solution before her new friends get sick of her disease?

In The Hour Before Midnight
Stacey Wyatt is a gifted pianist. He is also a competent mercenary soldier. But at the moment, he is sojourning in an Egyptian prison. Sean Burke has plans to rescue him. Charity is not his motive. He merely needs Stacey for what becomes a deadly intrigue. There is just one hitch. Stacey Wyatt is a typical Higgins creation. Born into a life of privilege, raised by a Sicilian capo, he escapes into a world of the mercenary and finally learns, almost too late, where his true loyalties should lie. Is Sean Burke really the true friend, or an opportunist who could shed Wyatt like an old shirt? What about Joanna, or Rose, or all the others.
