Locke & Key: Volume 3: Crown of Shadows

by Joe Hill (story) and Gabriel Rodriguez (art), 144 pages

Villain Dodge finds one key only to lose another. But he /she still doesn't have the one he / she really wants. Now-fearless Kinsey makes friends (real ones) and talks back to her disintegrating mother, sweet little Bode stumbles on more keys and needs a bandage, and big brother Tyler fails once more to impress the girl he likes and gets fed up with forces trying to hurt his family.

Ooh! Sneaky, twisty goodness! It's fun trying to piece together all the little clues from the panels and dialogue, from the past and the present. Observant rereading is highly recommended! How many keys are there? What locks do they fit? What do they do? Where'd Dodge come from originally? How long has he / she been around? Who or what is pulling his / her strings? Questions, questions, questions.
