Book Cover & Preview Text
A week after the anniversary party Billy, Liam and Sara
decided to go exploring. The vast
cloister-land was rich in opportunity and they were headed toward an abandoned
Indian village rumored to be deep in the forest. The trail was steep and rocky as it wound
through the heavy woods.
“Billy, will you slow
down! We’ve never been here before. Where’s Sara? ”
“I don’t
know where Sara is, behind us somewhere. Come on; there’s a big clearing up ahead, I
can see it through the trees; we’ll wait for her there.”
“You went too fast ahead of me!” A voice echoed up the steep slope.
“Where have you been, Sara?”
“I stopped back there, and when I looked up you both were
gone.”
“Why did you stop for? Li just noticed you weren’t with us, a few
minutes ago.”
“I had to pee. You
could have waited; I didn’t know where you had gone.”
