If you?re looking for somewhere to hide, this is it.It?s the worst winter in years. One night, running in the dark, Danny is attacked by a creature so strange and terrifying he tries to convince himself he was hallucinating. Then he learns about Native American legends of a monster that?s haunted the lake for a thousand years. And that every generation, in the coldest winters, kids have disappeared into the night. People think they ran away.Danny knows better. Because now the beast is after him.From the Hardcover edition.Graham McNamee is the award-winning author of four novels, including Acceleration, winner of the Edgar Award for Best Young Adult Mystery. He lives in Vancouver, Canada.From the Hardcover edition.I stumble on home in the dark, dizzy and delirious.The wind whips up, cutting right through me. So I start to jog. Back at the house, Dad will have a fire going and the place will be nice and toasty.He?s the caretaker at the Harvest Cove marina, for the off-season, while the owner winters down in Florida. Staying at the small marina house comes with the job. There?s a bait and rentals office on the ground floor, with the living space up top.It?s a temp job. Everything?s temporary for us. In the spring we?ll be moving on to the next town, next life. I?m not going to think about it.I think about Ash instead.Back on the first day of school, I was slouching in my seat. Trying to lay low. New place. New faces. Same old same old. Then in walks the boxer-girl who knocked me out. I slouched some more, hoping she didn?t see me. I was staring at the floor when a pair of black army boots stopped beside me. I looked up into the dark eyes of my assassin.?Hey, killer. Ready for a re-match?? She was grinning wide.Then she grabbed the seat right in front of me, and I had to stare at the back of her neck the rest of the day. A very nice neck, I discovered. And a very nice rest of her too.Now, licking my lips as I jog, I can taste her Mars bar. So what do I do when I see her at school tomorrow? She?s going to act like nothing happened. Guess I?ll play along with?What?s that? Out of the corner of my eye, I catch something big moving in the ditch on the right side of the road. I only get a blurry glimpse before it dips out of sight. Something pale and quick. And big!Slowing to a walk, I try and focus in the dim light from the crescent moon. Without moving too close to the ditch, I can only make out shades of gray?dark, darker and darkest.Nothing?s dumb enough to be out on a night like this. Like my grandfather used to say?a night not fit for man or beast. Or me.So I start jogging again. All the insanity that?s gone down tonight has got me wired and twitchy. That, and a case of hypothermia, must be toying with my brain.Coming up to Fourth Line, I pick out the firefly lights of houses set back from the road. The wind brings the smell of burning wood from cottage fireplaces. The taste of smoke in the air teases me with a promise of warmth, making the cold seem even colder.Passing the Line, I catch a flash of something pale in my peripheral vision, emerging from the right-side ditch to cross Fourth Line, then diving back into the deep shadows of the ditch on the other side.Th.
