Their mother, Nina, is too trapped in her grief--and a wine bottle--to notice that all in Keyhouse is not what it seems: too many locked doors, too many unanswered questions. Older kids Tyler and Kinsey aren't much better. But not youngest son Bode, who quickly finds a new friend living in an empty well and a new toy, a key, that offers hours of spirited entertainment. But again, all at Keyhouse is not what it seems, and not all doors are meant to be opened. Soon, horrors old and new, real and imagined, will come ravening after the Lockes and the secrets their family holds. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eLocke \u0026amp; Key, Vol. 1\u003c\/i\u003e features an introduction by \u003cb\u003eRobert Crais\u003c\/b\u003e, author of the bestselling Elvis Cole series of crime novels.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoe Hill\u003c\/b\u003e is the #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author of \u003ci\u003eFull Throttle\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Fireman\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHeart-Shaped Box\u003c\/i\u003e, and\u003ci\u003e NOS4A2\u003c\/i\u003e, recently made into a TV series\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003efrom AMC.
