About This Book

Twelve-year-old Oscar feels like a curse follows him everywhere, just like the Boston Red Sox, who haven't won in decades. Sent to live with his mysterious, ailing father near Fenway Park, Oscar discovers a hidden world beneath the stadium where magical beings are trapped by a powerful jinx. To set them free and help his beloved team win, Oscar must face challenges from creatures who want the curse to stay forever.
