Opis

With only a few broken branches and some scattered leaves for clues, fifteen year old Ralph Turner fears the worst has happened when his baby brother, Jacob, suddenly disappears. But with the help of his friends, and a Gandolf the Wizard look-a-like, Ralph embarks on a life-altering adventure through, and under, the town, in a desperate, and oftentimes dangerous, attempt to get Jacob back before anyone even knows he's missing. The only question remaining is, will they get there in time? The weekend started out like any other. Mom vacuuming the house, a morning of cartoon watching on the sofa, the boys avoiding house work at all costs and a trip to the corner store for candy and soda. But Ralph and Jacob Turner had no idea that such an ordinary Saturday morning was about to turn into a nightmare that would take them through a tunnel system under their quiet town that they could never have imagined existed. Faced with swarming bats, falling boulders, deep caverns and underground tidal flows, Ralph searches for Jacob with the help of his close friends, a kind old man not ready to give up on life, and the most unexpected of all, the town bully. Throughout the search the boys face teenage angst, dangerous challenges and obstacles and learn more about themselves and each other than they would ever have thought possible. Unexpected heroes emerge and the beginnings of a blossoming romance shed some hope and optimism on this otherwise seemingly hopeless trek.
