Following a shocking death that dredges up memories of their father's murder, Kinsey and Tyler Locke are thrown into choppy emotional waters, and turn to their new friend, Zack Wells, for support, little suspecting Zack's dark secret. Meanwhile, six-year-old Bode Locke tries to puzzle out the secret of the head key, and Uncle Duncan is jarred into the past by a disturbingly familiar face. Open your mind - the head games are just getting started!

Another stunning volume.  I am really into this series now.  I love the colors, the drawings, the characters, and above all the storyline.  This volume deepened the mystery surround the house and the creature from the well.  Plus we get the appearance of another mysterious key.  At the very end, we get a page from an old journal detailing the known keys.  I can't wait to see the others in action.
