Welcome to Camp Sunny Pines

Seer Frights #4 · by B. Carter

Nadia Quist has never come in second at anything, and she’s not about to start at summer camp. Camp Sunny Pines is the nicest place she’s ever seen: a perfect lake, color war, bug juice, counselors who never stop smiling, and a leaderboard that ranks every camper all session long. Two weeks, and on the last night they crown one Camp Champion, whose photo goes up on the dining-hall Wall forever. Nadia means to be that photo.

There are a few small rules. No phones. Stay out of the back field. And one printed in cheerful yellow on the welcome card that she reads twice and slides right past: No one leaves before Closing Circle.

At first the only scary things are camp things, and her rival Devi has a bored, perfect explanation for every one. The sheet ghost is a counselor. The face at the window is a prank. The kid who went home early was just homesick — except he left his inhaler behind. The faces on the Wall are a hundred years old and never age. And the bus only comes twice all summer: once on the first day, once after Closing Circle.

The camp keeps one camper every session. Not kills — keeps. And it keeps the best one. The winner.

Nadia spent two weeks clawing her way to the top of that board. Now she has to do the one thing she’s never done in her life: lose, on purpose, before the lantern is lit — or the camp she fought so hard to win will keep her forever.

A creepy, funny, page-turning middle-grade horror story where the thing you want most is the trap. Every chapter ends on a scare and half of them are real. Reads as a standalone — no prior books required.
