New York Times bestselling author Gregory Funaro brings us into a world where magic exists, monsters roam in the shadows, and wooden animals come to life.
Deep within the enchanted woods in the town of Watch Hollow stands the once-grand Blackford House, whose halls hold a magical secret: a giant cuckoo clock that does much more than tell time. But when the clock's gears cease to turn, an evil presence lurking among the trees begins to come out of the shadows.
When Lucy and Oliver Tinker arrive in Watch Hollow, they have no idea that anything is wrong. A mysterious stranger has made their father an offer that's too good for him to refuse. All Mr. Tinker needs to do is fix the clock at Blackford House and fistfuls of gold coins are his to keep.
It doesn't take long, however, for the children to realize that there is more to Blackford House than meets the eye. And before they can entirely understand the strange world they've stumbled into, Lucy and Oliver must join forces with a host of magical clock animals to defeat the Garr--a vicious monster that not only wants Blackford House for itself, but also seeks to destroy everything the Tinkers hold dear.

Gregory Funaro grew up in Cranston, Rhode Island, and wrote his first story, “The Ghost in the Window,"" in the fourth grade. He considers this to be his finest work, but unfortunately it has been lost to time. His other more recent works include the New York Times bestselling Alistair Grim's Odditorium series. Greg lives in North Carolina, where he teaches drama at East Carolina University.
Funaro carefully lays clues to help readers solve the mystery surrounding the house, while the love-conquers-all message keeps the terror at a (mostly) safe distance...A well-wound tale of good versus evil.
-- "Kirkus Reviews"Filled with clever, magical, and instantly likable characters, Funaro's excellent, fast-paced, and twisty mystery-packed with suspense, facts, magic, and an incredible, deeply thought-out world-will leave readers eagerly awaiting the next chapter.
-- "Booklist (starred review)"There is magic, there is good and evil, and there is love all woven into a suspenseful and entertaining mystery...A well-crafted story that should be a hit with readers who enjoy a a good scare.
