Produktbeschreibung
Benny and his best friend Jason find themselves in the middle of a terrifying mystery while attending a private boys' school far from home and family advice in Detroit. Gambling, extortion and attempted murder are all in the cards when Benny makes the mistake of trying to impress members of a secret society the headmaster thought was long broken up. When his wonderful cougar skin goes missing and the symbol of the Omega Society turns up in unexpected places, Benny finds himself forced into a meeting with someone who may already have killed to enforce his will. Can the unorthodox counsel and preparation of his beloved "Doctor Dad" see him through times as hard to survive as these? Can Benny resist the temptation to live a life of ease and privilege, and help his friends and family to do the same, even if he loses love and friendship trying? Can he bring about a Christmas miracle where everyone remembers how Jesus was born with nothing, but came as the Prince of Peace?
