Book description
Come close, children, and see the living crocodile. A vintage '54
Buick Roadmaster. At least, that's what it looks like…
There is a secret hidden in Shed B in the state police barracks in
Statler, Pennsylvania. A secret that has drawn troopers for twenty
years - terrified yet irresistibly tempted to look at its chrome
fenders, silver grille and exotic exhaust system.
Young Ned Wilcox has started coming by the barracks: mowing the lawn,
washing the windows, shovelling snow; it's a boy's way of holding on
to his father - recently killed in a strange road accident by another Buick.
And one day Ned peers through the windows of Shed B and discovers the
family secret. Like his father, Ned wants answers. He deserves
answers. And the secret begins to stir…
