The Creature In The Night - The two Detectives, #2

The creature in the night follows Jenny, an ordinary high school student, who is suddenly thrust into an extraordinary, supernatural adventure over the course of a harrowing weekend. It begins with Jenny, her loyal dog Scot, and eventually her newfound friend Ethan being chased through the woods by a terrifying creature-an ancient guardian protecting a dark secret. They narrowly escape, trapping the creature in a quarry, but they soon learn from a mysterious scholar, Dr.
Alaric Merritt, that this creature is only a small part of a much larger, more dangerous reality. Dr. Merritt reveals that the creature was a guardian meant to protect an ancient, powerful gateway to another dimension-a portal that has long been sealed to prevent horrors from crossing over into their world. However, someone has tampered with the seals, weakening the barrier, and unless Jenny and Ethan act quickly, the gateway will fully open, unleashing untold dangers upon the world.
Their mission is clear: they must gather three ancient artifacts that hold the power to restore the gateway's seals before it's too late. With only three days to find the artifacts and stop the looming threat, Jenny, Scot and Ethan embark on a desperate race against time. The stakes are incredibly high, and the pressure mounts with each passing moment as they uncover secrets, face deadly challenges, and realize that not everything is as it seems.
