The Unseen

When just a child, Lewis is nearly killed in a fire. It is then that he first discovers that he has a secret guardian–a giant, horrifying creature that only he can see. Now grown, Lewis lives away from town, his unseen guardian always with him, keeping him on the periphery of society, serving a penance for a sin he didn’t commit and doesn’t understand. When tragedy threatens to strike a busload of school children, Lewis makes a decision that has unintended and irreversible consequences. The people of the tiny town of Trackville have always been weary of the boy, but now some are terrified of him. And a few think that he needs to go. From the author of THE WATCHING and MISCHIEF NIGHT comes a classically-flavored horror tale that illustrates the destructive nature of small-town prejudices.
