Description
Archie Coomes has been watching too many horror movies. The ordinary things in his life have taken on a sinister edge: a penny on a doormat, a man in a brown suit under a streetlamp, the sound of an ax chopping in the middle of the night. He tries to convince himself that this is just Seaham, a sleepy seaside town where nothing ever happens. But when his dad's construction company opens up the cliff beneath the old Langdon place, the town is forever changed. As the adults in town begin to act strangely, Archie and his friends can't deny it: something is very wrong. An ancient evil has been unleashed, and it's up to the kids to stop it before it's too late. With the town's future hanging in the balance, Archie must confront the darkness head-on. In this gripping mystery, a group of young friends must work together to uncover the truth and save their community from the forces of evil that have taken hold.
