Book Synopsis

This eerie tale sees a group of men haunted by one traumatic event from their childhood. They thought they''d moved on . . . but someone - or something - won''t let them!

''Ginny Greenteeth comes for the naughtiest boys and girls . . . and from what I hear you''ve been very, very bad.''

1988: 13-year-old Andy Miller and his four friends become witnesses in the brutal murder of their classmate Melanie Bishop, and the severe beating of her sister, Poppy, at a decommissioned flooded railway line they call the frog ponds. The boys lead the police to a suspect, a vulnerable older boy who later commits suicide while on remand for the attacks - his guilt never proven. Their guilt ingrained on them forever.

Now: Carl Butler''s body is found beside the now gentrified frog ponds - and the lives of Andy, Brian, Johnny and Gavin start to unravel. Is the hag-like woman terrorizing their reality the grown-up Poppy set on revenge? Or something else
