Crow Country by Kate Constable

Sadie is furious when her mother drags her off to live in a country town.  As she begins to make new friends, she keeps having visions from the past.  Why do the crows seem to be talking to her?  Unravelling the mystery will mean she has to look into the past and find a way to right old wrongs.
