'Summer camping had me a... scare!

'Brad is forced to spend the last week of his summer holidays with his aunt, uncle and cousin Jason at Gordon's Lake.

'He hasn't seen them in years, but he is promised a good time.

'Cricket...Barbecues...Swimming in the lake...Ok, so there are worse places to spend your summer holidays, even if Jason likes to play scary jokes.

'All he needs to do is stay away from the abandoned warehouse.

'Then Brad starts hearing voices. Ghostly voices whispering his name, telling him he will never leave. And his new friends are a little strange. They disappear all the time, and they like to hang out at the abandoned warehouse.

'Brad thinks it's all in his head, but the truth is scarier than he could have ever imagined.

'Gordon's Lake can't really be haunted...can it?' (Publication summary)

'Or that her new best friend is lying to her.

'And what is that giant creature she sees roaming the streets at night?
