#2: The Crystal Charmer’s Secret

An old acquaintance from a summer camp they attended five years ago returns to ask Jake and Phinn for help with their aunt. The case: Investigate the mysterious charmer who's entered the woman's life through the promise of special crystals. The location: A hot, steamy summer cottage in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by forests and marshes. The complication: An eclectic mix of fellow followers of the potential con man who are also staying at the summer home.

Does the man have special powers from his selection of crystals? Will Jake be distracted by a bevity of beauties? Or will the monstrous beast hunted by a paranoid farmer strike them down first? Find out in the second novel of The Snooping Brats.
