Vanessa found herself looking straight into a large, salivating mouth with razor-sharp fangs. Above it, two glowing red eyes pulsed to the sound of her heart…’
Vanessa’s summer holiday on a ranch in Mexico is turned upside down as she enters a shadowy world of mysterious animal death, magical curses and dark family secrets. As she tumbles headlong into the mystery of El Chupacabra she starts to understand why some call it the Mexican Devil.
In this, the second book of the Cryptid Files series, Jean Flitcroft once again takes us by the hand and leads us deep into her world of myth, magic and monsters.
'Vanessa is back with a thrilling adventure in Mexico, where her courage and intelligence are tested to the limit by the terrifying presence of el Chupacabra: a creature that feasts on the blood of animals. Jean Flitcroft has written another wonderful book, one that immerses you in the heat and scents of Mexico. It is so suspenseful you'll find yourself missing your bus stop because you can't bring yourself to put the book away!' - Conor Kostick, bestselling author '... [a] fast-moving tale.' The Irish Times 'Wonderfully atmospheric writing ... gives that prickly-back-of-the-neck-feeling ... Another gripping yarn that pulls the reader in to a mythical, exotic world. It is an assured piece of storytelling' Books Ireland
