In the middle of butt-nowhere called “Calamity Beach”, 16-year old Grim and 17-year old Glitter find a hole in the abandoned amusement park just outside the town. The tunnel leads to a locked red door that not even light can get through. Things would all be fine and dandy (no questions asked) except for the strange noises seeping out of it.
That, and ever since going down there, Grim and Glitter suddenly gain mysterious powers. Grim can’t stop hearing people’s thoughts, and Glitter can see the ghosts of the dead.
Can these two teenagers discover the secrets lying beneath Calamity Beach?
