All Alexander and Theodora Sinister-Winterbottom want is a normal vacation, but they’re stuck at the spookiest waterpark ever. A missing owner, lost in the wave pool! A woman in the tower with no door! And, worst of all…not a single churro. Can Alexander and Theo rescue the summer, or will their own hopes be claimed by the depths of The Cold Unknowable Sea?
The Sinister-Winterbottoms find themselves at the Sanguine Spa in the care of the mysterious and intimidating owner, the Count. But this spa may be more than just eerie—it might also hold clues to what happened to their parents. When Wil starts to show vampiric symptoms, the twins resolve to investigate what’s really going on at the Sanguine Spa…and what’s going on in the caves beneath it, too.
After leaving the Sanguine Spa in pursuit of Edgaren’t, the kids find themselves at a mysterious summer camp, Camp Creek. There are lake games and happy counselors, and there’s even a tie-dye cabin. It’s all very . . . normal.
But if Theo and Alexander know one thing, it’s that normal doesn’t always mean good. When everyone around her starts acting strange, Theo wonders if maybe the fumes from the tie-dye cabin are seeping into their brains, and she resolves to investigate what’s really going on at Camp Creek.
After escaping from Edgaren’t and Dr. Jay, the Sinister-Winterbottoms and their friends arrive at Stein Manor Science Camp, where Theo and Alexander settle on a daring plan. They know exactly where Edgaren’t is going to be: coming for them, and the books. This time, they’ll be ready. This time, they’ll get answers. And this time, they won’t trust the adult in charge, which is easy enough when it’s enormous, lurking, unfriendly Mr. Frank. But as they get closer to opening the books and their parents’ histories, an unexpected foe is watching everything they do. . . .
Fake volcanoes! Real sea caves! Strangely modified frogs! Startling betrayal! And a lightning-struck manor! all combine for the electrifying penultimate Sinister Summer adventure.
Once upon a time, a bunch of fairy tales got twisted around to be completely hilarious, a tiny bit icky, and delightfully spooky scarytales. Grab some flaming torches, maybe don't accept that bowl of pease porridge, and get ready for a wickedly fun ride.
