7Nothing frightens Atticus Everheart more than monsters, thanks to his older brothers, who often threaten to feed him to the beastly creatures. Fearing that's what they will do if he doesn't replace the book he accidentally ruined, he takes a job tutoring a boy in his neighborhood. Although nervous about the job, Atticus soon discovers there's a lot more in store for him than teaching. Never in a trillion years would he have imagined he'd be hiding from monsters, working with ghosts, or searching for werewolves and witches. He's not brave, and he has no plans to change. Until he's forced to.
