The book is about a kid named Jack who is going to the mountains on a vacation with his family. But Jack is a little worried about going; he has been having a dream about a man with an ax standing at a doorway before getting grabbed by him! But Jack never sleeps on after that; he always wakes up, so he doesn't know were he is or what happened. Jack just leaves it behind and tries not to think about it on the ride up to the mountains, until he starts to get a funny feeling in his stomach.
