Trading Chicago's noise and heat for the breezy Massachusetts beach seemed like a great idea to Rudy Hutchinson. But strange things are going on at Cape Cod, where Rudy and his family are vacationing. The girl next door acts "weird"; a mysterious trunk has been discovered on the sand; and the kids have spied two shadowy men in a boat, carrying what looks like...bodies!When Uncle Jefferson suddenly decides at a tent meeting to follow Jesus, Rudy can't help but feel shocked. Is his uncle faking it? Is there something wrong with Rudy, who doesn't have an equally dramatic conversion story to tell? How will Rudy solve these puzzles without endangering his life and his relationship with God?
