Description
"Charlie Reade parece un chico normal de secundaria, excelente en béisbol y fútbol americano, un estudiante decente. Pero lleva una carga pesada. Su madre murió en un accidente de atropello y fuga cuando él tenía siete años, y el dolor llevó a su padre. a beber. Charlie aprendió a cuidar de sí mismo y de su padre. Cuando Charlie tiene diecisiete años, conoce a una perra llamada Radar y a su anciano amo, Howard Bowditch, un recluso en una gran casa en la cima de una gran colina, con un cobertizo cerrado en el patio trasero. A veces surgen sonidos extraños. Charlie comienza a hacer trabajos para el Sr. Bowditch y se enamora de Radar. Luego, cuando Bowditch muere, le deja a Charlie una cinta de casete que cuenta una historia que nadie creería. Lo que Bowditch sabe, y ha mantenido en secreto durante toda su larga vida, es que dentro del cobertizo hay un portal a otro mundo" - Solapa de la sobrecubierta.
Description
"Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid, great at baseball and football, a decent student. But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a hit-and-run accident when he was seven, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself--and his dad. When Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and her aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. Sometimes strange sounds emerge from it. Charlie starts doing jobs for Mr. Bowditch and loses his heart to Radar. Then, when Bowditch dies, he leaves Charlie a cassette tape telling a story no one would believe. What Bowditch knows, and has kept secret all his long life, is that inside the shed is a portal to another world"--Dust jacket flap.
