I’m thankful that nothing bad ever happened to us while on our adventures, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t enjoy reading about bad things happening to other people in the woods! So I was very interested when I heard about “The Devil Crept In” by Ania Ahlborn. So there is something a bit familiar about a story that involves children spending their time exploring in the woods. My childhood home was near a wooded area along the Mississippi River, and my sister and I would wander down to a secret waterfall and to the banks of the river. Review: Summer is here and my summer childhood memories have a lot of ‘wandering through the woods’ in them. Now, fear is reborn-and for Stevie, who is determined to find out what really happened to Jude, the awful truth may be too horrifying to imagine. For years, the residents of Deer Valley have murmured about these unsolved crimes…and that a killer may still be lurking around their quiet town. And then there were the animals: pets gone missing out of yards.

That, and there was that boy, Max Larsen…the one from years ago, found dead after also disappearing under mysterious circumstances. He knows what each ticking moment may mean for Jude, his cousin and best friend. And despite Stevie Clark’s youth, he knows that, too he’s seen the cop shows. They’re well aware that the first forty-eight hours are critical and after that, the odds usually point to a worst-case scenario.
