SOLVED. Spoiled boy sent to live with relatives on a farm, befriends a mysterious girl, genre: young adults/teens, year: around 2012 and before, publisher: possibly scholastic, cover: boy over looking a cliff with his golden retriever

[Nemo]

SPOILERS ahead!!! I remember that the reason the girl is so strange is because her uncle had cancer and committed suicide. His ghost haunts the farm. At the end, the boy returns to the city and receives letters from the girl.

Pleasing the Ghost's cover seems bit similar, but details don't fit.

Thank you for the response. It's not the one. The cover is a photo, not a drawing like this one.

Nemo ~~
You can "bump" your thread every month or so. This pushes your thread back to the top of the folder instead of languishing here on page 195 from six months ago where fewer eyes will see it. Get back in the game! Bump!
You can do this by typing a new comment at the end of the thread, or even by typing the word "bump."
Good luck!

He is not overlooking a cliff but the cover is similar to your description and so is the plot!

Hi Kate, this is Nemo's brother. He lost his log in account so he cannot move the topic to solved. Will you please help him out?
