Angus, along with his friends Hamish and Bodhi, is searching for a filming spot, and the wild, neglected garden of the strange Scream House looks ideal. But nothing there is quite what it appears. Angus soon gets pulled into a messy argument, the grown-ups around him are behaving oddly, his older brother seems to be hiding something, and his new teacher has taken a strong dislike to him. Then matters take a dangerous turn. During a frightening chase where lives are at stake, Angus has to think quicker and move faster than ever, not only to keep himself safe but also to protect a small, scared boy who is counting on him.
