prologue

The summer of 1989. The summer everything changed-the summer when seven children defeated a murderous clown. When Josephine Abrams learned many things she wished she could forget. When Beverly Marsh changed a girl's life. When Bill Denbrough, Richie Tozier, Eddie Kaspbark, Ben Hanscom, Stanley Uris, and Mike Hanlon watched two girls fall in love. When a vow was made that begged and pleaded to be broken. When all was right and when all was good. Until it wasn't.
