Ice Scream

When we made it to the top of the hill, we came down hard on our brakes.
What are you …
“Marty! No!” I called out, powering down on the pedals again.
“What is he doing?” Kalisha screamed, riding right behind me.
Marty didn’t even turn to look at me. Instead, I saw him step up casually into Bob’s van behind a little girl. Then the doors to the back of the van slammed shut. The van began to take off down the street, the music pounding.
In our effort to catch up, we passed Marty’s scooter; it was lying on the footpath along with a skateboard and skipping rope.
It was then that I realised the truth.

When Andy and his brother Marty move to Pine Ridge, they notice strange things about the town: the playgrounds and local pool are deserted, and there’s the mysterious disappearance of a boy thirteen years ago. Then there’s Bob the ice cream man. He appears when they least expect it and disappears just as quickly. Marty might be happy about Bob’s speedy service, but Andy knows something isn't right.
Then Marty is kidnapped. It’s up to Andy and his new friend Kalisha to stop Bob and save Marty and the others from his terrifying plan. The closer they get to saving Andy’s brother, the more horrifying truth is revealed about Bob and the missing boy from long ago...
