Publisher's Synopsis
Four young boys. Four pre-adolescent kids--all best friends--so close they formed their own exclusive no-girls-allowed club proudly declared The Deadenders. Four stalwart buddies walking together through the late afternoon gloom of tangled Midwestern woods on a mission that will secure even tighter their private little club, bind them more closely than ever, and set in motion a series of unspeakable events that will force each to grow up very fast...and face terrors that will haunt them well into adulthood. Four innocent boys, treading stealthily through a labyrinth of darkening forest to a pre-chosen spot...a magical place that will combine their greatest desires with their greatest fears. All blissfully unaware that they are not alone....that something else walks with them. Stalking. Waiting...
