“And the folks of Hamelin wept at the loss of their children. All were lost, except for one little lame child who was too crippled to keep up with the others.”
This is the story people have heard throughout the ages; a precautionary tale that warns about the importance of keeping your promises. But what if that wasn’t the whole story? Harvey Drury spent the past fifteen years being blamed for the loss of the other Hamelin children and he saw no reason to change the town’s less-than-wholesome opinion of him. But after a “drunken” rant and an inflammatory newspaper article, Harvey finds himself thrust into the center of a scandal and the possible destruction of everything he knows. Now he and the reporter who put him on the road to ruin must redeem themselves by solving the fifteen-year-old mystery and finding the Hamelin children before it’s too late. And several mysteries are solved along the way. Who is the Piper and where did he come from? Just who IS the young lady that mysteriously appears during their journey? And what does the future hold for young Harvey and the reporter named Heinrich who is dealing with much more than ambition and dreams of journalistic glory?
