When he goes back the next day he bravely goes into the farm house and discovers and family living there. He quickly becomes friends with the girl that lives there and learns why they are living their. The reasons is that their dad abused the mom and kids so they ran away.

This is a great story and I would recommend it to anyone even if that person does not like mysteries. This book is a book that keeps you up all night reading page after page chapter after chapter. I think that boys and girls would like this book equally.
