The pandemic is over. Life could not be better. But when Uncle Woodrow told Fletcher McKenzie the story of Mollyockett, he unfortunately overlooked the powerful Curse of Snow Falls - a curse that Fletcher now has to deal with. As Maine recovered from the pandemic, a series of bizarre events took place, including the disappearance of several innocent people. Fletcher and Uncle Woodrow are shocked when they determine that these horrific events had been caused by Tomhegan, Mollyockett's evil brother, as part of his effort to eliminate the entire McKenzie family and take control of the secret passage to a spectacular world called Whole. Tomhegan and his evil associates transformed these victims into violent moose-like warriors. They became a savage army of Slaughter Makers, ready for an attack on Whole. Fletcher and Mollyockett bring in others to help and there is a mighty confrontation between the two sides inside Whole. What happens next is truly spectacular. 'Fletcher McKenzie and the Curse of Snow Falls' was written with the help of students in the Author Studies Program at the Farwell Elementary School (Lewiston, Maine) and published with the support of the Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation.

Opting to not rain on her parade, he decided not to tell her that he’d learned all she was doing in the bookWhole Abounds he read two years earlier while in Whole. He was just thrilled she was home and safe. She’d suffered severe post-traumatic stress disorder in the months following the experience she’d endured at the hands of Tomhegan and Nimsy Cortland. He’d heard her screams at night as she suffered nightmares and flashbacks of the physical and mental trauma. She made the decision the day she was rescued by Fletcher, however, that she’d never talk about the events ever again. Everyone, including Aldous, honored her decision and supported her fully. She privately struggled through the fame she and Alek Von Piddle experienced with theirdiscovery of the lost temple in the Quechuan Valley in Peru. The stunning temple and its village was immediately declared a World Heritage site. The world never learned of Fletcher’s heart-pounding visit where he’d sealed the mysterious entrance to Whole that was secretly located directly under the ruins. Aldous did his best to keep the press away from Muriel and convinced Von Piddle to handle all the interviews with the international press, which he whole heartedly accepted. He relished telling stories and this topped them all by far. Muriel begrudgingly agree
