There's something strange about the new neighbors at the campsite next door. They wear winged-tipped shoes and overcoats. They didn't arrive in vehicles, but on foot, and carrying travel trunks. They stick to themselves and they're not friendly. And stranger still--they're afraid of something... it's a mystery mind-reading twins Meghan and Colin Jacoby want to solve. Well, Colin, reluctantly. And only because his sister knows just the right buttons to push to pique his curiosity. That, and she's impossible to say no to. But when the mystery unravels, it's not at all what they expect. And while the twins have never been what people would consider ordinary, their world becomes extraordinary. Solving one mystery leads to another, and another, and before they know it, they're dangerously steeped into an otherworldly adventure, which sparks an epic journey that's fated to be legendary. "Wow. Just wow. This was a book I desperately wish existed when I was a young teen. Not only was it an amazingly well-written story, but it reminded me of other great fantasies I have read. Reminiscent of books like Something Wicked This Way Comes. The ending blew me away and left me wanting more. I can't wait to read the second book!"- A Girl and Her Kindle"This enjoyable teen read mixes suspense and action with funny elements and serious parts. I look forward to seeing where the series goes...in many senses of that word. To know what I'm getting at, read the book." -The Paisley Reader
