The world outside sounds menacing as loud thunderous cracks rained down on the home. In the middle of this fierce raging storm with no electricity, siblings Zack and Daniel turn to their father, John Malone. Feeling the boys are now old enough to learn the truth about his childhood, John decides to share a family secret that he’s kept locked away, a secret that changed John’s life forever. In a small Pennsylvania town called Lizardville, a young boy named Johnny and his friends set out on a weekend camping trip along the banks of Big Fishing Creek.

It’s been a little over a year since the teens lost one of their own, but the memory still haunts them. On a crisp fall evening, Jimmy pays Johnny an unexpected visit near the water’s edge. He tells Johnny something is terribly wrong and that he needs his help in solving a mystery. Johnny, Buck, and the rest of the gang embark on another wild adventure, back to where it all began—a small cave nestled in the mountains of central Pennsylvania.

They quickly learn that this goes beyond anything they could ever imagine. With the help of friends, they might be able to pull off the impossible and break Jimmy’s curse. The dramatic conclusion of the Lizardville Ghost series is an enthralling, fast-paced, who-done-it adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final page. Sample
