A murder . . . A mystery . . . A monster . . . Is there a werewolf running loose in Sleepy Hollow?
Holding a newspaper clipping from his Mom's friend, Nick wonders if this ancient curse is working its way through the population of Sleepy Hollow, New York. Can a person be turned into a werewolf? Like most monster myths, Nick doubts the old werewolf tales are true.
Law enforcement officials claim a wolf or some other large animal killed the jogger under a bridge in Rockefeller State Park. Large misshapen paw prints were found around the body. There were also bite marks on her hands, and arms. Her death, occurring during a full moon, have led some to suggest that a werewolf may be running loose in Sleepy Hollow.
Certain there is no such creature, Nick digs into the case and uncovers hints that part of the werewolf legend may be true. Now, as the last full moon of the month rises over Sleepy Hollow, Nick is about to learn that some monsters are real.
And the worst kind of monster is the one you never see coming.

The Caden Chronices and other titles by Eddie Jones are also available as an audiobook with Amazon Audibles, with Professional Teenage Voice-Actor SZane VanWicklyn
Zane VanWicklyn, a teen professional voice actor, is the voice of Nick Caden, the main character in the "Monster Mystery" series. In his work as an audiobook performer, VanWicklyn gives personality and voice to fictional characters. "I've always enjoyed creating voices, accents and character traits essential in great storytelling," says Zane VanWicklyn.
"Nick Caden has a 'supernatural' knack for finding trouble," says author Eddie Jones (eddiejones.org). "Nick is a curious fifteen-year-old teen who attracts ghosts, vampires, and all sorts of undead---or so it seems. Nick has a way of finding the truth about a murder, even when law enforcement cannot. Of course when Nick arrives on the scene he confronts a variety of eccentric characters. This is where Zane's voice and abilities stand out. From the first time I heard him speak as Nick I knew Zane was the perfect actor for the series."
In addition to his work with ACX, an Audible-Amazon company, VanWicklyn can be heard in commercials, web-videos, eLearning/Tutorials, corporate presentations, documentaries, telephone prompts, cartoons, and jingles. Find VanWicklyn online at: zanevanwicklyn.com
