Wyatt has moved with his twin sister, Genevieve, to a crazy town with an even crazier school. The classes are questionable enough, with a spelling test on the first day of school. When "dance" is given as a word, the entire class gets up and dances. How is anybody supposed to learn a thing with such nonsense? Art class is just as crazy when the kids have to paint fruit - but not a still life. They actually have to paint the fruit! And there are so many mysteries for Wyatt to solve. Mrs. Byrd is missing, there is a teacher who Wyatt thinks is a vampire, and not even Genevieve believes him, and there is a giant, hairy beast somewhere who is afraid of cats. Wyatt discovers the reflection of the school where the monster lives, but his race against time is critical when people are changing into mysterious things.
