Could Things Get Any Weirder in Wells, Maine?

Working at her mother's hole-in-the-wall bookstore, Annie's Book Stop, 17-year-old Keegan has read plenty of mysteries. But she's never been part of one. Until now.

It starts when someone--or some THING--burglarizes a different business in Wells, Toil & Trouble. It specializes in occult, magic, and rare books. The thief steals an obscure book of little interest except possibly to a collector.

Things get stranger when a visitor appearing to be a hunchbacked nun comes into Annie's Book Stop and asks Keegan to order a reprint of the same book--plus two books on local graveyards! But before they can be picked up, a robed and hooded figure breaks into Annie's after hours and rifles through the special-orders shelf. Is there more to this book than meets the eye?

More questions come up, but the most important one is: Can Keegan survive long enough to unravel the big secrets of her small town?
