What is The Legend of Jack Riddle about?

Twelve-year-old Jack is sent to stay with his strange great-great-great-great-great aunt, Gretel, who wears a top hat, disappears into the forest at midnight and lives without Wi-Fi. When a mysterious cookie jar unleashes a goblin, Jack discovers that his family is tangled in a dark fairy tale. Gretel is not the innocent girl from the old story, but a dangerous witch, and Jack must uncover the truth before her sinister plans put him—and other children—in terrible danger.
