Summer has just begun, and fear is in season.

School's out, and the faculty at Fairington Elementary School are free for the summer. Emily Young can't deny her attraction to Aaron Jackson, the Ed Tech from her classroom, but she's afraid of being hurt again. Meanwhile, Aaron is determined not to let his phobia of drowning prevent him from enjoying the sun and the sand of Maine's best beach town.

But they're about to learn real fear. Fairington is home to a monster. Phys Ed teacher Matt Holmes has more to offer the ladies than a perfect smile. He's a killer and he's got his sights set on Emily. Who at Fairington will conquer their fears? And who will fall to a psychopath's hellbent rage?
