In the second chapter, the situation is heating up. The boys are on the run after saving the kiddos from Solomons' evil factories. Kehla makes ends meet, Mo and Sal meet a tall wise man, and Jynx meets a strange cat he doesn't like. The truth, whose stalk stands tall, has long, deep roots and requires digging for discovery. Bugs are eaten, dust is kicked up, and bonds are made.
