A long-abandoned—and long-haunted—summer camp sets the stage for the sequel to Camp Murderface, perfect for fans of old school scare masters like R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike.

There's no such thing as an uneventful summer at Camp Sweetwater.

Now that the Vampire Devils beneath the lake have been awakened, the camp is in big trouble. The first victims? Tez and Corryn's counselors, Gavin and Scary Mary.

The Camp Director insists that the missing counselors are just quitting and going home, but Tez and Corryn don't believe it. They know something much more eeeeeeevil is afoot.

With the help of their cabinmates, Tez and Corryn set out to investigate the disappearances. But what they find is a horror closer than the bottom of the lake... and it might just spell the end for all of them.

      There's something in the water in the creature-feature sequel to Camp Murderface (2020). After unraveling the haunting of Lake Sweetwater and helping the ghosts to rest, Tez is ready to kick back and make the most of the few weeks of summer camp they have left. Corryn, however, is convinced the horror's merely on hiatus. When Ew tells Corryn her strange dreams about the lake, Corryn's on high alert and the first to notice the counselors' fixation with getting kids in the lake--and the subsequent memory loss experienced by those kids. While the dual narration works well for filling in missing memories, sometimes it results in repetitive exposition, and it may put readers too far ahead of the characters in solving parts of the mystery. Once too much dangerous weirdness piles up, the heroes' bunkmates want to join the team, which they dub the Murderfaces. The characters' humor and interpersonal dynamics keep the book lively in the face of injuries and body horror. Tez's Marfan syndrome enhances his vulnerability throughout. The grand finale is a lengthy summer blockbuster of a climax in which, despite help from unexpected sources, it's up to the kids to save themselves. The camp population has implied diversity; Corynn presents as White, and Tez's grandmother is from Guam (the rest of his heritage is not specified). The end hints at some horror remaining after the happy denouement. An exceptionally fun read. (Horror. 8-14)
