Lightning Snake

Close Encounters of the Cryptid Kind #2

by Deborah Cannon

A mysterious sea creature is terrorizing an archaeological dig in a park in Victoria BC. Perky cryptozoologist Drey McFee is called in to investigate in her first paid case, only to discover that this is no ordinary sea serpent. The two young archaeologists who have retained her know a secret that might reveal where it came from, and it's up to Drey and her ghostly partner to wrestle it out of them—before it's too late.
