Shyla Harris knows that adults are hiding something from
kids-something frightening. The Special Protection Act forbids
anyone to tell children under 18 about this secret, and the law is
enforced by an agency with unlimited powers of censorship,
surveillance, and enforced use of secrecy products. Shy's brother
has learned the secret and is searching for an answer. She is torn
between learning the secret in order to help Jeffrey or ignoring it
for her own peace of mind. The secret comes closer when her
grandfather "goes" never to return, she hears pitiful wailing but
cannot find the source, and she witnesses two bodies disappear.
During summer recess, Shy and her best friend Harrie visit Shy's
grandmother and discover a cave in which they learn something that
could end the people's fear. However, to speak of it brings risk,
and by the end of the summer, Shy, her family, and her friends find
out firsthand just how dangerous it can be.
