The brand new must-read middle-grade novel from the author of super-spooky Crater Lake. Perfect for 9+ fans of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps and Stranger Things.
It’s Colette’s birthday and the friends are spending an evening at Neon Perch – an epic entertainment spot where they can eat pizza, play mini golf and – best of all – take part in Project Z – an epic new escape room experience. It’s going to be the best night ever!
Or is it...?
Somehow, the escape room seems to know each player’s greatest fears. And worst of all, there are creatures locked up with them. Creatures from their darkest nightmares... giant, poisonous RATS!
