"You don't know what scared is till you've fallen out of a tree late at night into a bunch of broken-down gravestones, practically on top of somebody you think might be a mean guy...and there's an awful scream still ringing in your ears."

Story Summary

Bob should have known how hard it would be to keep his secret. Especially when the secret he was trying to keep was a bedraggled little boy named Tim. When he shared his secret with his brother Sonny and his sister Debbi, they found themselves up to their ears in secrets, looking for clues to a mystery.

And when the family cat dug up a skull in their spooky neighbor's yard, Bob, Debbi, and Sonny knew they were in for the most spine-tingling adventure of their lives.
