In this slow-to-get-started story, narrator Kent and his friends go on an overnight fishing trip and encounter a pair of glowing eyes beneath the surface of Cedar Lake. Though it turns out not to be a monster, the real solution to the mystery is almost as preposterous. Nevertheless, this mild melodrama contains just enough adventure and humor to satisfy undemanding fans of the genre.
