How does an innocent summer vacation become a nightmare? How does a sensitive fourteen-year-old boy, left in the custody of a seductive governess and an enigmatic chauffeur, become initiated into sex, blackmail and murder? How does an affluent Chicago suburb become a place where the dead climb out of their graves at night and frighten the living out of their wits?" [Good questions, all!] When Dan Greenburg turns from humor to horror, the result is a book both hilarious and chilling.
