As a result, her parents have enrolled her for the summer at Camp Excel, an academic camp for underachievers. Emily doesnt want to go, and not just because she thinks it isnt necessary. Since she was a child, shes been plagued by a recurring nightmare. And something about this camp feels familiar. Has she been there before? Why cant she remember? With the help of two new friends, Emily discovers that her nightmare is not just in her head. Someone at Camp Excel has a secret and will do anythingeven killto keep Emily from uncovering the truth. A taut, well-constructed mystery. Kirkus Reviews Readers will once again fall under Nixons spell as they enjoy this page-turner. School Library Journal [An] inimitable blend of horror and whodunit. Booklist [Nightmare has] taut suspenseful passages[and] clever false leads. Publishers Weekly

“Shades and shadows slithered over and around her, trailing wisps of damp air, sticky-sweet honeysuckle, and the acrid smell of rotting leaves.”
