The Blackwood Chronicles Last Scoop: # 7

The latest book in the Blackwell Chronicles series, The Last Scoop, by Burton Blackwell. For all his other books, you can find them at: bluedreamscapes.com or at Amazon.com In the sweltering heat of Coldwater Falls, Missouri, the only thing more unsettling than the oppressive humidity is the arrival of a jagged, violet ice cream truck. Driven by a silent, chalky-faced clown named Barnaby, the vehicle emits a haunting melody that chills the air to a literal freeze. When local children begin to vanish, leaving behind nothing but puddles of glowing blue slush and jagged wooden sticks, the town's paranoia reaches a breaking point. Patrick and Ashley soon find themselves caught between a terrified mob of "Guardians" out for blood and a mysterious vendor who seems to be tracking something much darker than a simple sugar rush. As the "3 LEFT" countdown flickers on the truck's neon sign, the siblings realize that the true terror isn't driving the truck-it's lurking beneath the town's ancient limestone quarries. With the shadows rising and the temperature plummeting to absolute zero, Patrick and Ashley must decide if they can trust the monster everyone fears to defeat the nightmare no one sees. In this pulse-pounding installment of the Blackwell Chronicles, the price of a cool treat might just be your soul. Discover the chilling truth in The Last Scoop, available now by Burton Blackwell at Amazon.com.
