Freddy Murphy's life has been a challenge since his father walked out on his family, soon after his favorite Aunt Margaret died for no reason. If it was not for his friends, Chris and Simon, Freddy would have gone crazy over the summer. They were all looking forward to entering Waldport High School until they felt like they were being followed. While constantly looking over their shoulder and trying to help Uncle Jack, they find themselves running from the Irish mob and on an adventure to finding the clues that go with the famous family journal hidden in a secret room under Uncle Jack and Aunt Margaret's house for years. The Journal will lead the boys to Ireland's family-kept secrets to finding the truth about the mysterious story of Big George bringing his little brother, Billy Smith, back to life using the secrets of the journal.
