“Cooper.” She got closer. Four feet away. Three feet. Now I could see her eyes, and read the scary glassiness, the almost hypnotic trance.

This wasn’t the mom who would save me. This wasn’t the mom who would tuck me into bed at night. This wasn’t the mom who wanted to give me a cookie and a kiss on the cheek.
This was the mom who wanted to kill me.

"Whitten -- romance author Shirley Jump and daughter Amanda -- plow onto the YA horror scene with this terrifying tale. This is definitely a boy book, but it's a good one, and readers will root for Cooper to beat the terrible, disgusting creature at the bottom of the well" --Marie Bongiorno
