'This tale of extraordinary events was written to rouse the adventurous spirit within children. But perhaps older readers will also find it interesting, with the story stirring some to reminisce and recollect how they once were.
Although fictional, the story was inspired by three children who lived and played around Half Moon Bay in Drummoyne, a Sydney suburb. Set in the 1950s, a more innocent time, it was also an era when children created their own activities to pass away the hours.
However, one year, during the Christmas school holidays, Benjamin Beech and his two companions' lives are affected forever by a strange series of events and a lifelong secret promise.' (Publisher's blurb)
