Strange goings-on and mysterious disappearances haunt the placid beach-side town of Farrago Bay.
The local wildlife is behaving distinctly out of character ... and just who is the mysterious new student at the local high school, and what is he looking for?
Sheldon McGlone has had a tough time of it lately. But just when he thinks things couldn't get more tiresome, a strange new kid turns up in his class. Theo is not only frighteningly brainy, he could also be the key to the weird things happening in the bay (it's not every day that a crocodile turns up wanting to play throw-the-stick and what is the deal with the missing leg?). Perhaps Theo even knows what really happened the day Sheldon's dad disappeared...
Sheldon is drawn into the dark secrets of mysterious forces, and soon realises nothing is as it seems-and that it could be deadly!
