Although some may consider this a prequel to his best-selling adult Repairman Jack series, Wilson's first young adult book gives only a slim indication of the future Jack; here Jack fights evil occult forces while attempting to solve a mystery. Jack and his two friends stumble upon a body and a strange stone pyramid box in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Things grow even more mysterious when the kids discover links to a cult of sorts in their very own town--and cult members start dying off.

Ages 11 to 15.
