"Have you been inside The Cage?"

"Who told you about that place?"

For decades, local residents have referred to The Turner Estate as 'The Cage'. The crumbling mansion hidden in the trees is a favorite location for teens and adults alike to party out of sight of prying eyes. For Jeremy Finn, an intelligent young man constantly bullied for his weight and family situation, The Cage is a place to be avoided. As a curious 10 year old, he snuck inside the decaying building and stumbled across a scene that would engender nightmares for years. Jeremy kept the discovery to himself. Certain no one would believe him and determined to pretend the incident never happened. Eight years later, he would be compelled to return to The Cage by the curiosity of his only friend Elizabeth 'Bits' Reynolds. For Bits, a smart, strong-willed but emotionally vulnerable young woman, the mysteries of the mansion are tangible problems she can focus on and solve. Unlike the persistent grief of her father's unexpected death, which has left her feeling closed off and isolated. Sneaking inside The Cage is the easy part. Understanding the secrets within the abandoned house-and within themselves-will prove a much greater challenge. In a few short days the two teens will reveal a family tragedy to the world. And confront the fears they have both kept carefully hidden from themselves and those they love.
