The Shadow Over Lone Wolf Lake - Paperback

by D. W. Hitz (Author)

Sometimes dead doesn't mean dead, and sometimes family is bound by more than blood.

After the death of his cantankerous grandmother, twelve-year-old Drew Kline and his family move into her house. It boasts a vast, fantastic forest, a broad and beautiful lake, and it also happens to be Drew's father's childhood home and the place where his young uncle disappeared twenty-five years ago.

The night of his arrival, in the crawlspace of his bedroom, Drew discovers a miniature human skull. It's a curiosity between him and his brother Dean, sparking a debate about whether the thing is real or some well-sculpted decoration. When he invites his friends to spend their last weekend of summer break exploring the property's woods and his uncle's clandestine fort, which contains a burial ground of pixie-size bodies, they inadvertently find themselves trapped in a land of the dead.

What follows forces Drew's father to relive the horrific mystery of his uncle's disappearance and reveals a long-held family secret that has cursed generations. If Drew and his friends want to return home, they'll have to survive in that strange land as they fight their way back, and his father will have to confront an evil that will only be satisfied with blood.
