The Pool (Nightmare Inn No 3)

by Todd Strasser

***Fun in the water...*** Kelly Schneider could hardly wait for summer vacation. She's finally landed her dream job—she's head lifeguard at the New Arcadia Inn. ***Sink or swim...*** At first Kelly laughs at the legend about the pool. Years ago a girl drowned there; now they say she's come back for revenge. Then a string of horrifying poolside accidents reveals a frightening pattern: something weird really is after the lifeguards! ***Off the deep end!*** Kelly can't stay out of the pool, or the people she's supposed to protect will die. But every time she enters the water, she doesn't know if she'll make it out alive! ***Nightmare Inn - if you check in, you may never check out!***
