Opis

The dare was simple. Spend twenty four hours alone at the bottom of an abandoned well deep in the forest beyond the outskirts of town. But things do not go as planned. Vincent's friends fail to retrieve him from the bottom at the agreed time and the sun sets for a second night. Sequestered in the darkness far beneath the ground, Vincent Pattison has many hours to reflect on his short life; how his mother ditched him at the age of ten on to his grandparents, how his Grams' illness has worsened since he rushed off to college, and how his elderly Gramps seemed burdened taking care of his Grams on his own. How he ended up at the bottom of the well, and why his best friends chose not to return for him consumes his every thought. With little food or water he knows he must find a way out or he will die. The Pattison family name goes back many generations. It is rumored that inside the Pattison estate lie many secrets; terrible dark secrets. It has been suggested that Vincent's Grandfather's name is at the root of many of those secrets. The worst of those secrets, centered upon the very well Vincent now finds himself trapped, is about to be unearthed.
