 //Creature of the Night // Bobby's mother recently moved the family to a cottage in the country, far from his "bad influence friends" in Dublin.

When Bobby steals a car from the cottage and crashes it, he is forced to pay for it by working at the Dooleys' farm. There he learns the disturbing history of the cottage: the previous renter went missing, the Dooleys say, and a girl was murdered there. And now that Bobby's brother insists that a strange little woman is visiting the cottage at night, Mrs. Dooley's tales suddenly seem terrifyingly real.
