It all happens so quickly …

One minute, Meir ben Yaakov and three other boys are happily traveling together from Speyer to Paris. The next minute they are running for their lives — deep, deep into the forest.

Meir is forced to take the lead as the boys struggle to survive.

Two men undertake a desperate search to find them. Will they succeed?

Or will the boys succumb to the dangers of the dark woods?
