From the publisher

What is it about the old Wilder Creek Bridge that makes Lewis Barnavelt so curious-and so afraid? When Lewis and his best friend Rose Rita Pottinger set out to explore the bridge and the deserted farm nearby, they discover shocking secrets–and a horrifying monster. Even Lewis’s Uncle Jonathan and the magical Mrs. Zimmermann may not be able to vanquish this ferocious creature! “[Strickland’s] characters ring true in this entertaining page-turner that will captivate readers.” –“VOYA” “A wonderful blend of mystery, adventure, ghosts, and friendship.” –“School Library Journal”
