Author's Note

Frank Madelo struggled to escape from his boring luxurious life to spend childhood with his new found friends Ruel, Marco, Kate, and little Annette who all lived in a little compound next to his mansion. Ruel, the great grandchild of a late World War II soldier who survived the Bataan Death March, shared a mysterious discovery of his great grandfather scribbled in one of his combat journals. This discovery soon led the children to an old abandoned house in the middle of the forest that had mystically unraveled all of their young desires and inhibitions and in turn, led them towards an impending danger.
