Keith Gray – The Fearful

The legend says that in 1699 schoolteacher William Milmullen and his five pupils visited Lake Mou, but only William returned. He claimed that a terrifying creature rose from the lake and devoured the boys. But did it? And if it all happened so long ago, does it really matter to anyone nowadays anyway?
The legacy of that tragedy lives on in the town of Moutonby. A town divided between those who believe that something terrible still lurks deep down in the lake, and those who don’t. Is it real or just a story? A legend or a tourist trap?
Tim Milmullen wishes he knew. Every day he watches the dark water, looking for a sign. Because if the stories are true, if 'the dragon in the lake is real, then according to the legend he’s the only one who can stop it from killing again.
From prize-winning author Keith Gray comes this powerful, compelling story about why some people believe in things they’ve never seen, society’s intolerance towards others’ beliefs, and a father and son trying to understand each other’s ways.   źródło opisu: wew. skrzydełko obwoluty źródło okładki: zdjęcie autorskie
