Gustav, who lives in the mysterious shadow mansion across the street, asks Fernie, Pearlie, and their father to help him rescue his dad from the Dark Country. Then evil shadows try to capture them, and mayhem ensues. This third delightfully dark and quirky story with lightly creepy illustrations ends with a cliffhanger--readers will eagerly await the next installment.
