Bookroo's summary
Three young climbers, known as The Rock Jockeys, are trapped on Devil's Wall, a mountain hiding a sinister secret. They uncover a crashed B-17 bomber and a diary revealing a crew member's desperate act of survival. As eerie clues surface, the boys confront a haunting question: what would they do to survive? With sheer cliffs and wild woods surrounding them, the stakes are high, and the mountain's dark history looms large. Will they find a way out, or will the past repeat itself? The chilling mystery of Devil's Wall challenges their courage and morality.
From the publisher
High atop treacherous Devil’s Wall, The Rock Jockeys find much to explore. Sheer mountain cliffs. Wild woodland. Even a crashed B-17 bomber! But when they stumble upon a crew member’s diary–and unearth other eerie clues–the boys realize Devil’s Wall also holds a gruesome secret. That secret leaves The Rock Jockeys with a haunting question: If trapped on the mountain, would they do “anything” it takes to survive?
