An odd man in a brown suit under a streetlamp. The persistent sound of an ax chopping in the middle of the night.\nHe keeps telling himself that this is Seaham, a sleepy seaside town where nothing ever happens. Or at least nothing did, until his dad’s construction company opened up the cliff beneath the old—some say cursed—Langdon place.\nSoon, though, he and his friends can’t deny it: more and more of the adults in town are acting strangely. An ancient, long-buried evil has been unleashed upon the community, and it’s up to the kids to stop it before it’s too late. . . .\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0063015528\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0063015528.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Meloy, Colin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Former library book with the usual stamps, stickers and labels.
