Book I: New friends

By Ben Clabaugh

          David Fuller is a bored twelve-year old tangled in feelings of isolation and guilt over the death of his little sister. That summer, Shelton - a pudgy weirdo kid who spends hours staring at anthills, and greets dogs by sniffing their butts moves in next door. Can David really be friends with someone like Shelton? His wariness turns to suspicion, then fascination as he uncovers what it is that makes Shelton special. But he’s not the only one. When men in black start showing up, David realizes what’s really at stake. Now he faces the hardest decision of his life.

After following a passage discovered in the back of a cave and becoming trapped in a mysterious chamber carved by some lost civilization using unknown technology, Car Bonner is about to find the answers to all of the 'What ifs' in his past. And then he finds out the answers to "What then?"
