Solid 4.5 stars
A group of friends set out on an adventure along the railroad tracks and woods in search for the missing kid, Ray Brower who one of the boys hears about when eaves dropping on his brother. They go through some crap along the way.

The details are chefs kiss and you even get to read more about Ace who has very short appearances in the movie (actor Kiefer Sutherland played Ace <3). I needed something small to read after finishing Desperation …

I needed something small to read after finishing Desperation to get my mind reset for my next dive and this was perfect.
