The House of Secret Senses
The introduction for the book is like a girl named Kwan Li who has a yin eyes which can see spirits and ghosts. She is Chinese born but immigrant to San Francisco because of her father last wish. Her father was killed by lung diseases and has a family in California. He has two sons and one daughter called Olivia Laguni. So Olivia and Kwan is like half-sister. Olivia is really worried and scared that Kwan will come and stay here with them. It is because she thinks that Kwan will take all the love or attentions from the family. By the time, when Kwan moves here she is eighteen and Olivia is just only the age of six. However, Kwan is really good sister. She can takes care of everything for household. Olivia thinks that Kwan is annoying and stupid because she asks everything what she see that she does not know. Therefore, Kwan learns English from Olivia and eventually Olivia learns Chinese from Kwan. Later, Kwan talks about the spirits and how terrible things happened in China before.
My prediction is like since Kwan has a yin eyes, she might be seen the dead of their father. Or maybe the story about how she becomes to see the sprits and since when. Also, the title is like " The Hundred of Secret Sense" Kwan might has superstition power from yin eyes and help the ghost to show the right way to heaven. From there, Olivia becomes to know or learn about the Chinese culture from Kwan.
