Noah and his friends in the Secret Society join with four teens who are called the Descenders to try to protect the Secret Zoo behind the Clarksville City Zoo from monstrous sasquatches. In this story there are special passages under the animal exhibits where Noah and his friends find fantasy and mystery. I liked the book and I know you will too if you like books about mystery and fantasy.

The first book and this second book as well, really surprised me. They are fast reads, but there is enough to the story to keep you interested. It is a fun story with mystery and adventure around every corner. It adds a new element of fun to going to the zoo.
