A murder . . . A mystery . . . A monster . . . Is there a werewolf running loose in Sleepy Hollow?

Can a person be turned into a werewolf? Like most monster myths, Nick doubts the old werewolf tales are true.

"Consider this account of King Nebuchadnezzar from the Book of Daniel," his grandfather says. "Instantly his body became drenched with the dew of heaven until his hair grew like the feathers of an eagle and his nails like the claws of a bird. 'Let him live with the animals of the earth, ' declared the holy messenger from heaven. 'Let his mind be changed from that of a man and let him be given the mind of an animal.'"

Holding a newspaper clipping from his Mom's friend, Nick wonders if this ancient curse is working its way through the population of Sleepy Hollow, New York.

Certain there is no such creature, Nick digs into the case and uncovers hints that part of the werewolf legend may be true. Now, as the last full moon of the month rises over Sleepy Hollow, Nick is about to learn that some monsters are real.

And the worst kind of monster is the one you never see coming.
