Dark Lenny
By: Bill Crawford
Lenny is the school bad boy and when Kev convinces his brother Wes to let him spend the night at his house, he realizes quickly Lenny is nuts and it might have been a big mistake. But then, he shows him something in a backyard a few blocks away that turns his world upside down. Something that would change his life as well as his brother's and their closest friends forever, something right out of a fairy tale.
As Kev is trying to believe what his eyes tell him can't be real, Wes and his friends find out about a young girl that's vanished from their town and are determined to help find her. All of them, along with a few local cops and a homeless vet are about to step into a war, ages old, between the very first families of good and evil.
There are many innocents to save and battles to be fought. Friends will turn on friends and kids will find strength and learn to accept the unbelievable in a world they never believed could exist, the world of Dark Lenny.
