As a child, Harley Conrad had been gravely ill. He was a boy used to needles, tubes, monitors and hospitals. Now as a teenager, Harley appears to be a healthy young man. However, during one certain summer he must encounter the brutal forces of nature, a combative family member, an unfortunate puppy, and the desperate life-threatening needs of a child in danger. Did these challenges in life fall randomly on Harley or did he somehow seek them out, now that his body was healed. His pursuit of art seemed to certainly have its rewards. Yet at times, it led him into crisis situations which became tests of his own courage, bravery, and acceptance. Join Harley, along with his friend Sandy (just a friend...not a girlfriend ) on their adventures through Willsbury where a cape is more than it seems.
