About the Book

A boy . . . a witch . . . and a "totally "sinister paradise: that s what Marcus gets when his mom rents a scuzzy trailer and parks it near a dirty, noisy beach. Some vacation! Marcus would rather play video games anyway, but when he discovers a staircase underneath the trailer, it looks as if he may be in for some kind of multilevel, multiplayer experience controlled by a complete nightmare of a witch. It s just like a game except it s all too real. The author of "Evil Genius" spins a brilliantly compelling yarn of a journey into a dark and twisted land because once you enter the Paradise Trap, there s no guarantee that you ll ever leave!"

Review :
Praise for Catherine Jinks: "A breathless escapade." "Kirkus Reviews " "Jinks (the Evil Genius series) combines a plot filled with surreal twists and turns with a dash of Greek mythology in a novel that hits the mark on both the humor and horror fronts." "Publishers Weekly " "Jinks deftly mixes mild horror with humor to give younger readers a few shivers and make older readers chuckle. Each dream/nightmare world sheds dramatic, sometimes touching, insight into the character whose hopes and fears create it, and the nonstop action will make for exciting read-alouds and book talks. Completely absorbing and totally fun."
