SUMMARY: What if the monsters from your favorite horror books were real?Eddie Fennicks has always been a loner, content to lose himself in a mystery novel by his favorite author, Nathaniel Olmstead. Thatβs why moving to the small town of Gatesweed becomes a dream come true when Eddie discovers that Olmstead lived there before mysteriously disappearing thirteen years ago. Even better, Eddie finds a handwritten, never-before-seen Nathaniel Olmstead book printed in code and befriends Harris, whoβs as much an Olmsteady as he is. But then the frightening creatures of Olmsteadβs books begin to show up in real life, and Eddieβs dream turns into a nightmare. Eddie, Harris, and their new friend, Maggie, must break Olmsteadβs code, banish all gremlins and monster lake-dogs from the town of Gatesweed, and solve the mystery of the missing author, all before Eddieβs mom finisheswriting her own tale of terror and brings to life the scariest creature of all.From the Hardcover edition.
