''House of Secrets'' is a 2013 children's novel by Chris Columbus and Ned Vizzini. The book was first published on April 23, 2013 through Balzer + Bray and is the first book in the ''House of Secrets'' series. The book follows the three Walker family children as they attempt to find a secret book and rescue their parents in the process. Rights to the book were sold in 12 different foreign territories. Of the book, Columbus has commented that he was inspired to write the series after seeing the popularity of the ''Harry Potter'' series and its effect on young readers. Columbus has also remarked that he views the book as a "cousin" to his 1985 film ''The Goonies''. ==Synopsis== Cordelia, Brendan, and Eleanor Walker are less than pleased when their parents purchase the creepy yet too-perfect Kristoff House, especially after a mysterious woman called Dahlia Kristoff appears and demolishes it. She claims to be the "Wind Witch" and the daughter of the original owner of the house, Denver Kristoff. The three Walker children are horrified when they find that their parents are dead and that they're trapped in a novel written by Kristoff himself. Having read the book previously, Cordelia knew that they would soon meet a new person, Will, a member of the National Flying Corp from World War One. They soon find strange things and learn that they are not just trapped in a single book, but inside three of them. The Wind Witch suddenly appears before them, saying that their mission is to find a secret book that she can't touch. She also promises to release their captured parents if they do so. They go on an adventurous trip to find the book, escape from the hurdles and save their parents.
