Description
A mysterious cat causes chaos in the tenth book in New York Times bestselling author Christopher Pike's Spooksville series. Adam and his friends are exploring the area around Spooksville when they come across a black cat. It seems friendly: it purrs when they rub its back, and licks its paws like any other cat. But then it follows them back to town, and strange things begin to happen. A tree falls down, and a house catches fire. Each time something bad happens, the cat is there--watching, show more with its strange green eyes. And it won't go away. Adam and his friends don't know what to do. Especially when the fearsome feline begins to use its powers on them! show lessTags

While exploring the outskirts of Spooksville, Adam and his friends encounter a mysterious black cat with vivid green eyes. At first it seems harmless—purring when petted and curling in the sunshine—but soon misfortune follows it wherever it goes: houses burn, trees fall, and accidents happen. Is the cat cursed—or just unlucky? Their curiosity forces the group to uncover the cat’s dark origins and how to stop the chaos before it’s too late. The Wicked Cat mixes supernatural chills, eerie mystery, and small-town suspense in classic middle-grade style.
