       Additional Information  
     
      In Burlington, New Jersey, in 1735, Mrs. Leeds is about to give birth. But chaos reigns in this small cabin in the woods when the newborn baby boy begins to grow claws and wings emerge from his back sides. It is at that time the myth of the Jersey Devil is born.
    Two hundred and seventy one years later, New Jersey school teacher Cindy Garcia is brutally murdered. The perpetrator broke every bone in her body. Authorities determine that no human could have inflicted this much damage. A hair found on Garcia's body is determined to be more than two hundred years old. Is the Jersey Devil more than a myth?

    Soon, three ordinary people-police officer John Garcia, lab worker Maria Sandner, and Professor Edward Artiste-become embroiled in the mystery of this monster. The three must decipher the clues linked to hidden scrolls, a locket, and a bracelet before death strikes again in The Jersey Devil.
