The Headmaster’s Cave

Summary

No one goes into The Headmaster’s Cave.

George Stewart is no hero, but when his friend disappears, he must confront his fears to rescue Dougie and to finally uncover the mystery of The Headmaster’s Cave.

The 120th anniversary of the disappearance of seven children and their Headmaster in a local cave known as The Headmaster’s Cave is approaching. The knowledge that one of George’s ancestors disappeared with the other children has haunted him and his family for generations. When George and Dougie receive an unexpected email stating that the mystery has finally been solved, Dougie and Katie try to persuade George to journey with them. But not even the enticement of uncovering the mystery can tempt George to follow the word of a stranger to the dangerous and ‘haunted’ cave. Only when Dougie goes missing, will George and his friend Katie, accompanied with his dog, Flanagan, journey to rescue his friend.

On their way, they must not only battle their fears, but must also overcome nature’s obstacles, Old Maggie and her dog pack, and the local bullies. But that’s nothing compared to the terror that awaits them in The Headmaster’s Cave, when the mystery is finally revealed.

The Buzz About the Book

“The Headmaster’s Cave is a fun and exciting read by an author who’s obviously not forgotten what it’s like to be young. The Headmaster’s Cave is most highly recommended.” ~ Readers’ Favorite, 5 Stars

“…In the end the truth about The Headmaster’s Cave and the events surrounding it will come as a surprise – but not until chapters of thrilling adventures, self-examination, and challenging encounters spice a read designed to draw in even the more reluctant reader, providing a vivid story that explains some events but leaves the door open for further adventures.” ~ D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review

“Kept me on my toes and found myself not wanting to put it down, even fell asleep reading just to find a good stopping point. Great read and would defiantly recommend to those young readers interested in adventures and mysteries.” ~ Marcus W., Amazon

My Review of The Headmaster’s Cave

If you’ve got a middle grade reader who loves adventure books with a little mystery thrown in, they’ll love The Headmaster’s Cave. The main characters are not your typical hero types. They get picked on and bullied and aren’t the best loved kids, but they sure know how to have an adventure and find out the truth. The bullies are downright mean, but the “heroes” find a way to prevail in spite of those ever present characters.

I think that Maggie and her dogs are my favorites in this story. Maggie may seem rough on the outside, but she’s got good intentions. I only wish she’d been in the story a little more!

Your kids will enjoy reading about George, Dougie, and Katie and the way that their adventure unfolds. The book has a good ending, yet it leaves room for more adventures for our trio.
