Third in the series, the continuing saga of siblings Aimee and Shane Lancaster, descendants of Ichabod Crane, who is responsible for the many demons, spirits, and creatures that haunt Sleepy Hollow. Aimee and Shane feel a duty to track down and stop these critters that their ancestor has unleashed upon the town. In this installment, vandalism has run rampant, causing a great amount of damage and a few fatalities. The blame for these events has been laid at the feet of Mark Hyde, one of Shane and Aimee’s friends and it is up to them to uncover what is causing the mayhem and stop it.
This book is as focused on Mark Hyde as it is on the mischief going on in Sleepy Hollow and the attempts to stop it. There also is the continuing development of the relationship between Shane and his sister’s friend Stasia. This book turns into one part horror book and one part teen romance. For this series you really need to read the books in order to understand the relationships between the characters. A complaint that I have about this book in particular is that Golden and Gilmore throw in characters just to kill them off: if the authors had fleshed the characters out enough so the reader could care about them, it would have made a much more engaging story.
The book that follows this is The Hollow: Enemies.
Contains: murder by supernatural creatures.
